Hi Urs,

Done.

Please check unionfs-2.3.3, just released.  I was able to back-port the
fixes from the later kernels (2.6.23+) to kernels 2.6.9 through 2.6.22.  So
now even those older-ish kernels have moved to using ->fault instead of
address_space_ops.

I've tested this as thoroughly as I could, but I'd really appreciate some
more testing on your end (and anyone else).  Feel free to open bugzilla
reports with any problems you discover (reports of "it's working better now"
are accepted too :-)

Thanks,
Erez.
