What do you think it contains? This isn't exactly difficult:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=306cfd630a4d121cf4e08b894d8b4c4cf106e57e;hp=4cec1a37ba7d9dce6ed5d8259b95272100a98b1f

Surprise, your header patch.

And what about the changes required to maple.c? Did you even bother
reading what I was talking about in that paragraph? Or even bother
looking at the build failure? Your changes are _incomplete_, even if I
had fixed up and merged the input driver changes (which you weren't able
to see as being a problem, despite the fact the underlying code being
patch had changed completely). Until you can figure this out and get your
environment resembling something sane, please stop sending me any email
or patches, thanks.
