Kernel 3.10.0 build error

I'm trying to build the module on kernel 3.10.0 on 3.9.* all was working 
flawlessly, however on 3.10 I'm getting the following errors:

I managed to compile these modules and it seems to work

A bit improved patch:
 - added copy_to_user to reads
 - removed #ifdefs since fops should work for 3.9 too

Btw, this still not fixed in trunk, is project dead?

Well with this patch it still compiled in Linux 3.19 for me... but the system 
freezes when I try to read the current status ;)
