Trying to compile 2.2.2-pre5 with CONFIG_FILTER and CONFIG_PACKET produces:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fom
it-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malig
n-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o loopback.o
loopback.c
/usr/src/linux/include/net/sock.h: In function `sk_filter':

Looks like sock.h needs a change to sk_run_filter but I'm not sure exactly
what to do here...
