Note that right now, the content above this line in libc-compat.h
makes assumptions about what glibc does and doesn't define that are
specific to current glibc versions. I think it would be nice to make
the whole remainder of the file unconditional rather than being the
#else path for !defined(__GLIBC__). Then future versions of glibc can
properly define their own __UAPI_DEF_* macros to tell the kernel
headers about anything new the define. But I don't think that has to
be part of the same change you're proposing now.
