linux-2.4.1-pre9/include/linux/acpi.h contains declares the
routine acpi_get_rsdp_ptr returning the kernel-only type "u64", without
bracketing the declaration in "#ifdef __KERNEL__...#endif". Consequently,
a user level program that attempts to include <linux/acpi.h>, such as
acpid, gets a compilation error. The following patch fix the problem
by stretching an earlier "#ifdef __KERNEL__...#endif" area to cover
the acpi_get_rsdp_ptr declaration.
