I'd much prefer it if we can find a way to avoid encoding specific RHEL
kernel versions as you had in your patch. I've gone with
#define gfp_t unsigned
which basically ignores any existing typedef. I think this is OK in this
instance since gfp_t has always been

My thinking was that since those older kernels don't define NET_IP_ALIGN
and don't hardcode the number 2 anywhere they don't expect any extra
alignment. Therefore using 0 seems correct in terms of behaving the same
as native drivers do on those versions. I'm not sure I would want to
backport the addition of the extra padding in our drivers, the distros
haven't seen the need for example...
My current patch is below, it cross-compiles for IA64 without warnings
against RHEL4.4 and SLES9sp3. Could you let me know if it works for you?
If so would you mind submitting the ia64 bits via the ia64 maintainer.
I'll apply the unmodified_drivers bits.
Ian.
Additional PV-on-HVM fixes for IA64.
