The changes are not that hard,  just bulk edits really.

We did it as part of ocf-linux.sourceforge.net,  and the patch for
openswan-2.4.9 works on 2.6.22,  but is probably too much change
unless you really want OCF support.

So if someone wanted to just fix up the vanilla 2.4.9 for 2.6.22 they
would find all the mods in the ocf-openswan-2.4.9-20070727.patch.gz
Specifically look at the changes in:

	openswan/linux/include/openswan/ipsec_kversion.h

mostly revolving around the macros ip_hdr, skb_network_header,
skb_set_network_header and so on.  Then look at how they were used in the
patch to know how to fix up the stock 2.4.9 source.

Cheers,
Davidm
