Thanks!

I saw from your other thread the idea was to take snapshots and to run scripts
to compare etc. but I suppose putting this into the known-stub directory
tools/include/linux rather than tools/include/uapi/linux would avoid a conflict
here.

Or would you say the wrapper should regardless be in the uapi/linux directory?

Thanks!
