[linux-cifs-client] patch to update RHEL4 cifs to cifs 1.29

[Steven French]

Test patches for updating RHEL4 (Somewhat simliar SLES9 server and Suse
workstation 9.2 patches are in the same directory):

If you want to take current mainline kernel versions of fs/cifs/directory
and get it to build on RHEL4:

http://svn.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/convert-mainline-2.6.11-kernel-version-of-cifs-to-build-on-rhel4.patch



Or if you want to do the reverse and take RHEL4 fs/cifs directory and patch
it to contain current cifs (cifs version 1.29):

http://svn.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/update-RHEL4-to-cifs-version1.29.patch


And the default 686 cifs.ko
      http://svn.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs.ko.version1.29-for-RHEL4


And the fs/cifs directory itself (if you e.g. simply want to unzip them and
from the root of the kernel build tree do make M=directory_you_unzipped_to
      http://svn.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.29-for-RHEL4.tar.gz

Let me know if you see any problems with these.
