That's what I'm saying, it seems to work without your patches already.
At least on bpf-next/master. But it's ok, let's keep it and just add
#ifndef guard, that will make my life easier when syncing to Github
later one. Then the patch can go through other trees and eventually
make it into bpf-next and then Github. So please keep my ack for
#ifndef version, thanks.
