Hi All.

I have just installed kernel-2.0.34 and patched it with modules-14f, there
was one rej file created on my system kernel/sysctl.c.
The cause is a new line has been added to sysctl.c at line 456 which is:
table->de = NULL;

I edited sysctl to look like:

}
/* Don't unregister proc directories which still have
entries... */
if (!((de->mode & S_IFDIR) && de->subdir)) {
proc_unregister(root, de->low_ino);
table->de = NULL;
kfree(de);
}

I saw no warnings and i dont see any ill effects.

Terry, Tomi, is this correct and can i assume i have done it correctly,

I am sure this will be asked many times in the near futcher by others who
see they have gotten a .rej file when patching with ax25-modules-14f.
