2.4 direct_IO API changing?
I see in 2.4.22-BK-latest:

Quoted 2 lines
(quoted diff) +1
-1- int (*direct_IO)(int, struct inode *, struct kiobuf *, unsigned long, int); + int (*direct_IO)(int, struct file *, struct kiobuf *, unsigned long, int
Should this really be changing in the middle of a stable series?
I realize that vendor's are already shipping this difference, but still... it's a bit of an abrupt midseries change that can potentially break working code.

Its something most people are already shipping and something you actually do need for some of the direct IO stuff.
BTW: Marcelo your mail system is broken *again*
