[patch] Make User Mode Linux compile in 2.6.11-rc3

[Rob Landley]

As of yesterday afternoon, the UML build still breaks in sys_call_table.c, 
here's the patch I submitted earlier (which got me past the break when I 
tried it).  Last week, this produced what seemed like a working UML.

Now there's a second break in mm/memory.c: the move to four level page
tables conflicts with a stub in our headers.  Not quite sure how to fix that.
Jeff?

(Yeah, I know Andrew's tree works.  But wouldn't it be nice if the kernel.org 
tree to worked too, before 2.6.11 release.)

Subject: [uml-devel] [patch] Make User Mode Linux compile in 2.6.11-rc2-bk6.

User Mode Linux doesn't compile in 2.6.11-rc2-bk6.  Here's the change I
made to sys_call_table.c to make it compile.  (I ran the result and brought
up a shell.)

We're really close to finally having a usable UML kernel in mainline.
2.6.9's ARCH=um built but was very unstable, 2.6.10 didn't even build
for me, but 2.6.11-rc1-mm2 builds fine unmodified, and ran my tests
correctly to completion.

Here's the patch.  Nothing fancy, it simply removes or stubs out all the
syscalls the compiler complains about.
