[PATCH] markers: modpost

[Roland McGrath]

Frank, I hope you can take it away from there.  If it needs to be reworked,
there should be enough made clear by my patch for someone else on the team
to follow up on the details.  

A simple change of a couple of lines will be required for the Fedora-style
packaging to pick up the file once the patch goes in.  

If the patch turns out noncontroversial and is on track upstream but does
not look like it will hit 2.6.24, I will throw it into Fedora development
(rawhide) builds early for you.


Thanks,
Roland
