Subject[PATCH] Fix unix module
From
Date
Linus, please apply.  I should never have accepted that damn "make
modpost create the struct module" patch during the stable series: this
is at least the third fix which had to go on top of it...

Name: Fix name of unix domain sockets module
Status: Tested on 2.6.6-rc1-bk2

# lsmod
Module Size Used by
1 26060 6
#

The compiler #define's unix to 1: we use -DKBUILD_MODNAME=unix. We
used to #undef unix at the top of af_unix.c, but now the name is
inserted by modpost, that doesn't help.

#undef unix in modpost.c's generated C file.
