It doesn't compile if you try to compile it inside the kernel.
Here's the error I get:

make -C imon
make[2]: Entering directory `/mnt/src/kernel/linux-2.4.10-imon/fs/imon'
make all_targets
make[3]: Entering directory `/mnt/src/kernel/linux-2.4.10-imon/fs/imon'
make[3]: Circular imon.o <- imon.o dependency dropped.
rm -f imon.o
ld -m elf_i386  -r -o imon.o
ld: no input files
make[3]: *** [imon.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/mnt/src/kernel/linux-2.4.10-imon/fs/imon'
make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/src/kernel/linux-2.4.10-imon/fs/imon'
make[1]: *** [_subdir_imon] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/src/kernel/linux-2.4.10-imon/fs'
make: *** [_dir_fs] Error 2

And BTW, the patch seems to work with the new 2.4.11 kernel too
(compiled as a module otherwise same error as above).

Regards,
Jerome
