Minor source code bug in Linux port

Compiling the arla-0.25 on Linux 2.2.5 smp, there's a minor problem in
xfs/linux/xfs_syscalls.c.  The lock_kernel() function uses
&kernel_flag.  The real name of kernel_flag is
kernel_flag_R__ver_kernel_flag, at least on my system, so xfs.o won't
load.  There's certainly a right way to fix this, but I just stuck

#define kernel_flag     kernel_flag_R__ver_kernel_flag

before all the #includes.  With that change, it loads and runs fine.

Regards,
Jon
