    I get the following error building 2.6.10-bk3:

    drivers/block/floppy.c: In function `init_module':
    drivers/block/floppy.c:4598: error: syntax error before "UTS_RELEASE"
    make[2]: *** [drivers/block/floppy.o] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [drivers/block] Error 2
    make: *** [drivers] Error 2

    -bk3 (and -bk2) have a patch that removes
    #include <linux/version.h>
    from floppy.c, which apparently makes UTS_RELEASE undefined.

    Putting the #include back in fixes the error.

    I can provide config/machine info if needed.
