Problem compile module vmnet VMWARE 4.0 in 2.4.70-mm8

Hi:

    I have problems when compile module vmware 4.0 vmnet with kernel 2.5.70-mm8.

    the messages is:

You'll need to replace all instances of "wmem_alloc" with "sk_wmem_alloc"
and replace all instances of "protinfo" with "sk_protinfo".  And similar if
you get more compile errors.

Lots of socket members were renamed, by adding an "sk_" prefix.

Add sk_ prefix to these members.
