During build I get the following error:

The target kernel is 3.8.7. Any idea what could cause this?
The above error (and this is not confined to just DNETMAP) seems to be
caused by CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS. When this is set, together
with CONFIG_PROC_FS also being enabled in the kernel, the uid and gid
fields of proc_dir_entry (proc_fs.h) are no longer "unsigned int", but a
struct types, so they should be accessed/set with uid.val and gid.val
instead - at least that is how I managed to get it work. I'll attach a
patch if there is interest in fixing this bug - just let me know.
