It's fine to change the platform_uuid_compare usages inside xfsprogs
itself, but linux.h is shipped as part of the development headers, which
means that you can't get rid of the wrapper functions without causing
build problems for other userspace programs.

OK, maybe it would be best to split the effort into more steps:
1) A patchset that stops using platform_* functions and replace them
with standard linux calls inside xfsprogs
2) A patchset that adds deprecation warnings into publicly visible
platform_*() calls
3) Fix userspace programs now using the deprecated functions
4) Remove completely platform_*() functions from xfsprogs
Would that be a suitable path?
Thanks!
