Chas, that's great news about setcontext()/getcontext() on aarch64. It 
does look like the combination of patches worked and allowed it to 
compile fully. I responded to Andrews thread with a combined patch file 
that should work.

I did just run into the Debian openafs-modules-dkms that was built from 
the 1.6.9 Debian source with this patch applied failing on:

checking your AFS sysname... configure: error: An AFS sysname is required

I haven't had time to dig into it much, but this is blocking the 
compilation of the kernel module.
