[1.] One line summary of the problem: Can't compile kernel 2.5.4

[2.] Full description of the problem/report: After configuring and starting
compilation, there are messages:

In file included from
/usr/local/src/test/linux-2.5.4/include/linux/spinlock.h:7,
                 from
/usr/local/src/test/linux-2.5.4/include/linux/module.h:11,
                 from loop.c:55:
/usr/local/src/test/linux-2.5.4/include/linux/thread_info.h:10:29:
asm/thread_info.h: No such file or directory

[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version): Current is 2.4.16, downloaded is
2.5.4

# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.4.16 (root@yakov.dls.net) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat
Linux 7.1 2.96-99))

[7.] Environment AlphaStation 200 4/233

[7.2.] Processor information (from /proc/cpuinfo):

# cat /proc/cpuinfo

cpu model : EV4
cpu variation : 0

[X.] Other notes, patches, fixes, workarounds: Apperently the thread_info
implementation for sparc platform broke alpha platform as there is no
asm/thread_info.h file.

  Thanks you,
