[linux-dvb] Error compiling dvb-apps

[Mario Rossi]

I cannot compile dvb-apps

Letest mercurial, kernel 2.6.18.2, gcc 4.1.1

In file included from dvbvideo.c:28:
../../include/linux/dvb/video.h:105: error: expected ':', ',', ';',
'}' or '__attribute__' before '*' token
../../include/linux/dvb/video.h:138: error: expected ':', ',', ';',
'}' or '__attribute__' before '*' token

Apparently this patch

http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps?cmd=changeset;node=a0fafaa04b83;style=gitweb

reverted a previous workaround for missing __user

http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps?cmd=changeset;node=a56ced471c8b;style=gitweb

What is the exact way of handling the macro __user in a userland application?
