[Tux3] ERROR: "__set_page_dirty_no_writeback" [fs/tux3/tux3.ko] undefined!

[Antonio Vargas Gonzalez]

Hi Kiran,

The nearest reason I can see is that we are missing including
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.26.5/include/linux/mm.h#L820
which defines the prototype for that function. Does that fix for you?
