I got the following compile warning in 2.4.22-pre10:

The minor #define was added to kdev_t.h in 2.4.18-pre4. The following
patch adjusts tipar.c accordingly. Besides this, it changes the kernel
version chack from a private macro to use the KERNEL_VERSION in kernel.h.

I've tested the compilation with 2.4.22-pre10.

Please apply
