Etienne Dechamps 476ff5a4da Handle any invalidate_inodes_check prototype.
In the comments of commit 723aa3b0c2,
mmatuska reported that the test for invalidate_inodes_check() is broken
if invalidate_inodes() takes two arguments.

This patch fixes the issue by resorting to another approach for
detecting invalidate_inodes_check(): is simply checks if
invalidate_inodes is defined as a macro. If it is, then it concludes
that invalidate_inodes_check() is available. This will continue to work
even if the prototype of invalidate_inodes_check() changes over time.

README.markdown

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:

$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
