Well, try to upgrade from 2.0.36 to 2.2.4 and you'll see you HAVE TO create
these links; otherwise you get this when you do make dep:

gcc -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -o scripts/mkdep
scripts/mkdep.c
In file included from /usr/include/sys/mman.h:32,
                 from scripts/mkdep.c:20:
/usr/include/linux/mman.h:4: asm/mman.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [scripts/mkdep] Error 1

It seems that the links were created/changed automatically with the 2.2.2
and 2.2.3 kernels. But that's just what somebody told me.
