Subjectdrivers/block/rd.c compile error
This change went into drivers/block/rd.c in 2.5 recently:

diff -urN old/drivers/block/rd.c linux-2.5/drivers/block/rd.c

kunmap(vec->bv_page);

if (rw == READ) {
- flush_dcache_page(page);
+ flush_dcache_page(sbh->b_page);
} else {
SetPageDirty(page);
}
The trouble with that is that there is no variable called sbh defined
in this function, rd_blkdev_pagecache_IO. Thus we get a compile error
on PPC. The problem wouldn't show up on x86 since flush_dcache_page
is a no-op (i.e. do { } while (0)) there.
What was the change trying to achieve? What was wrong with
flush_dcache_page(page)?

Thanks,
Paul.
