[parisc-linux] cvs confuse me: please help!

[Joel Soete]

Hi all,

As usual I do a 'cvs -z3 update linux-2.6'.

Head of linux-2.6/Makefile:
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 1
EXTRAVERSION =-rc2-pa0

# *DOCUMENTATION*
# To see a list of typical targets execute "make help"
# More info can be located in ./README
# Comments in this file are targeted only to the developer, do not
# expect to learn how to build the kernel reading this file.

To build my own merge with 2.6.1 I grab linux-2.6.1-rc22.tar.bz2 from ftp.kernel.org and do a diff between src to obtain a patch 
file. Just scaning this patch file I read this:

         inq_len, inq_version, inq_byte7, inq_byte56);

To be sure it's relevant, I check with viewcvs and read the Matthew's patch:

I so remove my tree linux-2.6 and redo cvs co linux-2.6 but when I check 'sym_misc.c', I always got:
[snip]
     313         /*
     314          *  Get CLOCKING capability.

     316         inq_byte56 = tp->inq_byte56;
     317         if (inq_version >= 4 && inq_len > 56)
     318                 inq_byte56 = inq_data[56];
     319 #if 0
     320 printf("XXXXXX [%d] inq_version=%x inq_byte7=%x inq_byte56=%x XXXXX\n",
     321         inq_len, inq_version, inq_byte7, inq_byte56);
     322 #endif

What do I wrong?

Thanks in advance for help and advise,
