mkpatch doesn't work for 2.5 kernels, so don't mess with 
anything in the mkpatch directory unless your driver
works on 2.4 kernels.

Since you checked it into the HEAD branch and not the lk2-4 branch
I assume it's 2.5 only? If so work directly with Greg, and
you probably didn't need to check the driver into CVS at all.
