This is only a first step. netback uses add_timer_on(), which isn't being 
exported, and which I don't think would be a
good idea to export. Someone knowing the code better than me should check 
whether that function can be reasonably
replaced by __mod_timer(). All other build issues preventing modular use should 
be resolved with this patch.
