I saw this too, and was about to send a fix along with some other fixes
I'd stumbled across.  However, looking at the other arch implementations,
I think the fix is different from what you've posted -- i.e. I think it should
be simply this:

-static inline int rwsem_is_locked(struct compat_rw_semaphore *sem)
+static inline int compat_rwsem_is_locked(struct compat_rw_semaphore *sem)

I'll get the actual patch for this and two other compile fixes sent along
in a few minutes.

Paul.
