Sigh.  I'd really like to avoid any use of LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
Depending on kernel headers like this is evil.  I see that
libc/sysdeps/linux/arm/ioperm.c also uses it, but that looks
like it can be corrected without too much pain.

Regardless, I find it a bit hard to believe that armeb always
uses the Linux 2.4 code as this patch seems to suggest...
