those are from newer kernels; add the following to ataraid.h (at the bottom
or so) and it should work:


static inline void add_gendisk(struct gendisk *gp)
{
        gp->next = gendisk_head;
        gendisk_head = gp;
}

static inline void
del_gendisk(struct gendisk *gp)
{
        struct gendisk **gpp;

        for (gpp = &gendisk_head; *gpp; gpp = &((*gpp)->next))
                if (*gpp == gp)
                        break;
        if (*gpp)
                *gpp = (*gpp)->next;
}
