That would be this changeset:
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.4/diffs/include/asm-i386/system.h@1.16?nav=index.html|src/|src/include|src/include/asm-i386|hist/include/asm-i386/system.h

This patch (below) works for me with your original i386 .config file.

// linux-2.4.26
// drmP.h doesn't need local cmpxchg() and __cmpxchg();
