[Preston] kernel build

[chris]

ok, for some strange reason i felt the urge to rebuild my kernel this
morning, and guess what, i fell into some problems, make config; make
dep went fine, but when i went to make bzImage i came up with an
error...

So i go to the file:line where the compiler is having a problem, but
seings i have no idea about C coding, i just get lost and go get myself
a coffee lol.

<code>

1126:        byte *args = (byte *) rq->buffer;
1127:        byte stat = GET_STAT();
1128:       int retries = 10;
1129:

If anyone has some help i would greatly appreciate it :).
