V4L hg tree fails to compile against kernel 2.6.28

Douglas:

On compiling with  Linux  2.6.28-19-generic #62-Ubuntu

I now get:

dvb_demux.c: In function 'dvbdmx_write':
dvb_demux.c:1137: error: implicit declaration of function 'memdup_user'
dvb_demux.c:1137: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

This is probably due to changeset 2ceef3d75547

which introduced the use of this function:
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/diff/2ceef3d75547/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_demux.c

This function is not available in linux/string.h in kernel 2.6.29 and lower.

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/string.h?v=2.6.28

Could you please advise me on what to do ?

I am already working to give a full update to hg tree. Sorry this problem.
Hi Douglas.  Any estimate when this will be fixed?  Was hoping it was
already since new stable kernel 2.6.35.2 is out now but still the same
problem when I tried just now.
I am already working on it this weekend. I will reply this thread when finished.

2.6.35 should be working, let me know if not. Now, I need to backport
the changes to old kernels
and commit other patches in my pending list.

Cheers
Douglas
