[PATCH] PREEMPT_RT_FULL Build error fix

From: John Kacur
Date: Fri Aug 26 2011 - 08:07:47 EST


Problem:
make O=/bld/3.0.3-rt11/ kernel/fork.o
/home/jkacur/jk-2.6/kernel/fork.c:91: error: section of ânameâ conflicts with previous declaration

__cacheline_aligned is already part of the definition of DEFINE_RWLOCK
for -rt

However it is not always used for the tasklist_lock in non-rt, so it can't
simply be added to the definition of DEFINE_RWLOCK in non-rt, so I modified
the definition in fork.c
