'invalidate_inode_pages' is deprecated (declared at include/linux/fs.h:1796)
The fix for this looks like it should be to change invalidate_inode_pages 
to invalidate_remote_inode for all AFS_LINUX26_ENV. This calls 
invalidate_inode_pages for versions where that's the right thing and 
invalidate_mapping_pages where that is appropriate. (We don't support 
inodes types other than REG, LNK or DIR anyway)

error: implicit declaration of function '__grab_cache_page'

Why not grab_cache_page? even in 2.6.28, they look identical (That is 
find_or_create_page and __grab_cache_page do exactly the same thing, other 
than a cosmetic difference in how they pass th gfp_mask through to 
alloc_pages and some code layout optimization. Probably why 
__grab_cache_page was removed....) It looks like this one has already been 
fixed in cvs, but in a different way.
