2.5.45 build failures

(On x86 Debian/sid)

1) Device mapper:

2) NFSv4 server

fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c: In function `nfsd4_write':
fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c:484: warning: passing arg 4 of `nfsd_write' from incompatible pointer type

(Niggle: NFSv4 server support is hidden until you select v3 support, unlike v4 client support).

3) Niggles in qconf

I like qconf a lot more than the old tk based xconfig - but I do have a few niggles:
a) The window starts very small
b) In split window mode, the arrows in the right hand window don't seem to always work right. For example in Bus options->support for hot pluggable. When I click on the 'PCMCIA/CardBus support' arrow the right hand window contents are replaced with just the PCMCIA/Cardbus enabling rather than expanding in the existing list. In addition there appears to be no way to get the standard Bus Option right screen back without selecting something else in the left hand pane and then selecting Bus options again.
