Has there been any progress on kernel 4.5? fedora 23
shipped 4.5.5-201.fc23.x86_64 today and my openafs is broke. This makes me
very sad.

When I try to compile it I get these errors:

https://paste.fedoraproject.org/374192/14649784/

I am using:

0001-Linux-3.13-Check-return-value-from-bdi_init.patch
0002-Linux-4.5-no-highmem-in-symlink-ops.patch
0003-Linux-4.5-get_link-instead-of-follow_link-put_link.patch
0005-Linux-4.5-don-t-access-i_mutex-directly.patch

with openafs-1.6.18-src.tar.bz2

Am I missing some patches?

Thanks for any ideas anyone may have on how to compile openafs on 4.5
kernel. I know its possible since Arch Linux pulled it off.
