Hi Alan,
Your compiler must really like you, seeing as it would barf on any
significant I/O here. Somewhere along the line, somebody removed
the INIT_LIST_HEAD for current->local_pages from fork.c and didn't
put it back somewhere else (like INIT_TASK or whatever was in mind.)
I just put it back where it was for now, not knowing what the
original intention was. As long as it is put somewhere... :-)
Paul.
