Subject[PATCH] include/linux/personality.h
Hi all,

the attached patch encloses the kernel-only parts of personality.h with
__KERNEL__ to prevent them to be visible in userspace. This also fixes
the nameclash between the macro personality() with the syscall
personality() if the header file is included in an userspace program.
Patch is against 2.4.21, should apply to 2.6.0-test1 equally.

Cheers,

Hannes
