[PATCH] buz.c compilation problem (missing macro) in 2.4.4

[Ronald Bultje <rbultje@ronald.bitfreak.net>]

Hi,

2.4.4 returns this error when compiling the buz module, the macro
MALLOC_MAXSIZE is missing:

[...]
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686
-DMODULE   -c -o buz.o buz.c

buz.c: In function `zoran_ioctl':

make[3]: *** [buz.o] Error 1
[...]

This error was also present in 2.4.3 (forgot to report it :) ).
Some patch seems to have changed the original name of this macro
(MAX_KMALLOC_MEM) into KMALLOC_MAXSIZE, but the define of this macro
(#define MAX_KMALLOC_MEM (512*1024)) was removed...
This value (512 kb) is wrong anyway, according to Dr. Rainer Johanni (the
original maintainer). He recommends to make it 128 kb, which was originally
the value in his driver.

So the proper patch would be as simple as:

*** buz.c-old   Sat Apr 28 09:16:24 2001
--- buz.c       Sat Apr 28 09:16:57 2001
***************
*** 97,102 ****
--- 97,103 ----
  #define MINOR_VERSION 0               /* driver minor version */

  #define BUZ_NAME      "Iomega BUZ V-1.0"      /* name of the driver */
+ #define KMALLOC_MAXSIZE (128*1024)

  #define DEBUG(x)              /* Debug driver */
  #define IDEBUG(x)             /* Debug interrupt handler */

Although this driver will probably be replaced by the new one from Serguei
Miridonov sooner or later, imho it's best to fix this for the time being...
