[Bug 776103] Re: package open-vm-dkms 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu2 fails to build against 2.6.39 kernels, due to missing linux/smp_lock.h

[Nate Muench]

These patches are very important, so pay attention.

Currently the Oneiric branch is very out of date/sync (understatement).
Apparently some idiot (I know that's tasteless) never updated the branch
with the packaging for Natty/Oneiric.  The branch is only up to date
with packaging for Maverick, which was uploaded by me.

The following patches were done by using the branch downloaded from
Oneiric (which lacks the Natty/Oneiric code) and my working branch.
When I do the branch proposal, the patch (enclosed with this
comment/post), will be used to add my packaging as well as including the
changes made for Natty (and the current Oneiric packaging).

I'd be happy to update the branches for Natty, so they're up to date.
