Hello Ihara-san.

Thank you for your reply.

I'll check bugzilla at next time.

By the way, could you please tell me how to re-compile it?
I would like to know easiest way to rebuild it.

I've found same issue on Bugzilla.

http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_
status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&content=&product=&query_f
ormat=specific&order=bug_id%20DESC&query_based_on=

I think it is better than your fix.
Because I think __pskb_copy does not use before 2.6.32-358.10.1.el6.
http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel/commit/?id=117632e64d2a5f464e491fe221
d7169a3814a77b

1, Whether __pskb_copy declared or not in kernel.
  ex) grep -q '\<__pskb_copy\>' /boot/System.map-`uname -r`

2, If declared __pskb_copy define a macro CONFIG_COMPAT_HAS___PSKB_COPY

3, Add ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT_HAS___PSKB_COPY at same place which you added.

Best regards.
