This is now fixed upstream, so should turn up in the rawhide
kernel-headers package next time we build a kernel.

http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=39028ec6

These constants _are_ deprecated though, so anything which was affected
by this should be removing them anyway. But that's no excuse for just
dropping them without warning from the header file.
