Subject: uapi glibc compat: fix compilation when !__USE_MISC in glibc
From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit f0a3fdca794d1e68ae284ef4caefe681f7c18e89 ]
These structures are defined only if __USE_MISC is set in glibc net/if.h
headers, ie when _BSD_SOURCE or _SVID_SOURCE are defined.
