alpha:

fs/freevxfs/vxfs_inode.c:298: error: conflicting types for 'vxfs_iget'
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_extern.h:61: error: previous declaration of 'vxfs_iget' was here

Not completely trivial - the ino_t -> unsigned long conversion needs to be

(when should we be using ino_t and when should we be using unsigned long,
anyway?)
