Can't load module under Linux 4.14.6-1-ARCH

[Segaja]

I cloned the master and compiled the module but the module is not loaded after reboot. When I try to load it by hand I get this error:

insmod: ERROR: could not insert module /usr/lib/modules/4.14.6-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/mt7610u_sta.ko: Unknown symbol in module

When I look in dmesg I see these errors:

[  366.268321] mt7610u_sta: Unknown symbol vfs_write (err 0)
[  366.268712] mt7610u_sta: Unknown symbol vfs_read (err 0)

Would be great to see this fixed in the master.

If you need more information please let me know.

Best regards

Confirming this affects my installation also:
uname -a
Linux 4.14.16-1-MANJARO

Seems like vfs_{read/write} dropped in kernel ~4.14

Not sure the exact kernel version or how to test if this symbol exists though. Something similar to this may work.
