FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module libafs.ko uses GPL-only symbol

No keyring support, then?
sys_chdir is used to scan for the syscall table. keyring support should
be unaffected.
well, if he has keyring support, he need not care about syscall table
patching, right?
Not entirely true - some people might still care about supporting legacy
apps that don't know about the /proc interface for making AFS syscalls.
In any case, what he does or doesn't care about doesn't change the fact
that the code is there. This is a known problem, BTW, though I don't
recall offhand what fix we came up with.
Of course, one could whine at Linus that someone made an already-existing
symbol be GPL-only, which he has said is not supposed to happen.
