Subjectsound driver + memcpy patch = problem

There is a problem with the latest kernels and the memcpy patch.
kernels 2.0.18 were fine, but 2.0.19 and 2.0.20 cannot compile their
sound drivers if I also add in the pentium memcpy patch

I get a lot of linking errors like this :
sequencer.o(.text+0x243b): undefined reference to `__generic_memcpy_fromfs'
sequencer.o(.text+0x24af): undefined reference to `__generic_memcpy_tofs'

I can compile this newer kernels if I disable the pentium memcpy
routine - I mean, I let the patch in, but I say "no" in my make xconfig

I think this is only that some headers for the sound driver are different
that those of the rest of the kernel.... probably I could track down the
error, but I will easyly spend an afternoon on this. So I just hope that
Hannu will know what changed before 2.0.19, and it will change that back
in a few seconds :) but if this problem persists in the next kernel or if
someone asks me to track it down, i'll do it myself :)
