Hi Greg,

The above build problem reported by Sachin can be fixed with the
patch below. However, it still will leave with the following
warnings, which i think can be ignored:

drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:164: warning: ‘VEthOpen’ defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:183: warning: ‘VEthClose’ defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:196: warning: ‘VEthXmit’ defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:231: warning: ‘VEthGetStats’ defined but not used
drivers/staging/epl/VirtualEthernetLinux.c:238: warning: ‘VEthTimeout’ defined but not used
