There is no way I'm applying a crazy patch like this.
That can't be right.
And even if it works, it *still* isn't right.

I feel the same way about the ridiculous ../..'s in the include path. But that
seemed to be the accepted way (I even have an email that I'm trying to find, in
which someone confirmed that...ah here, it is [1], and I'm adding Jason to CC)
for the odd situation of sharing a header file between kernel and user space,
for the kselftest world.
If there's a different acceptable way, I'd be delighted to use that.
