this is pretty telling. __inode_queue_event doesnt exist in any
of the 'standard' kernels so it seems like a new thing. a google
search shows one hit from the lkml:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/3/8/187
it seems to add some members to the inode struct, a list and a spinlock.
both of these are going to need to be inited since the auther apparenty
didnt put them in init_inode_once(). the changes openafs needs would be
similar to any of the ones in the past. detect that member in at
configure time and initialize it in afs_vcache.c -- see the list
archives about how i_sb_list was handled.
