[ts-7000] FIXED: Cannot mmap kmalloc'd memory in kernel module with userland =/

["explosivedonut" <>]

Figured out the problem. My code worked just fine - turns out the original 
'make oldconfig' does not seem to function properly for me (under the TS-Linux 
ts9 distribution). 

Instead of using ts7200_defconfig, 'make oldconfig' couldn't find the .config 
file and reverted to some wacky architecture. I'm not sure why - the .config 
file was in the kernel source root. This misconfiguration caused my macros to 
run the wrong code and virt_to_page() was not working correctly.

To get around the problem, I simply did a 'make ts7200_defconfig' and loaded 
the resulting .config file using 'make menuconfig'. After that I rebuild the 
whole kernel and now my kernel module is working great!

Thanks and sorry for disturbing anyone.

Cheers,
Mike
