The above build problem reported by Sachin can be fixed with the
patch below. However, it still will leave with the following
warnings, which i think can be ignored:

drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:164: warning: â??VEthOpenâ?? defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:183: warning: â??VEthCloseâ?? defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:196: warning: â??VEthXmitâ?? defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:231: warning: â??VEthGetStatsâ?? defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:238: warning: â??VEthTimeoutâ?? defined but not used
