Subject: 2.4.0-test13-pre3 and ext2 as module

Hi

I compiled test13-pre3 a few minutes ago and when running
make modules_install I got this:

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.0-test13-pre3/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.o
depmod: buffer_insert_inode_queue
depmod: fsync_inode_buffers

As you may have noticed I have ext2 as a module, I have reiserfs as main
filesystem here on this system. This is not a critical error to me.

I havn't tried to compile ext2 into kernel.

.config is availiable if anyone wants it.

Jeff Raubitschek posted a patch for this on the 12th.

Thanks for the quick response, testing the patch now.
If it works I'll ask Linux to include it in the next pre-patch

Gaah, why do I write Linux instead of Linus... maybe I should get some
sleep..

Hi

Linus, will you please consider this patch by Jeff Raubitschek for the
next pre-patch? It fixes two unresolved symbols in ext2.o when building
ext2 as a module.
