Huh, my compilation against 2.6.11.6 goes ok, and the kernel boots, but
when I install the module:

 enbd: Unknown symbol devfs_mk_symlink

Yet it's clearly there in the kernel!

 nbd:/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.11.6% grep devfs /proc/kallsyms | grep -w T
 c01840d0 T devfs_add_partitioned
 c0184140 T devfs_add_disk
 c01841c0 T devfs_remove_disk
 c01abc14 T devfs_mk_bdev
 c01abc60 T devfs_mk_cdev
 c01abee4 T devfs_mk_symlink
            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 c01abf24 T devfs_mk_dir
 c01ac034 T devfs_remove
 c01ad870 T devfs_register_tape
 c01ad8bc T devfs_unregister_tape
 c01f7654 T vcs_make_devfs
 c01f76e0 T vcs_remove_devfs
 c039b210 T mount_devfs
 c039b22c T umount_devfs
 c03ac8ec T mount_devfs_fs

That is kinda difficult to understand! Grr. Can I have got spaces in the
name by accident?
