and include <linux/const.h> in UAPI headers instead of <linux/kernel.h>.
commit a85cbe6159ffc973e5702f70a3bd5185f8f3c38d upstream.
The reason is to avoid indirect <linux/sysinfo.h> include when using
some network headers: <linux/netlink.h> or others -> <linux/kernel.h>
-> <linux/sysinfo.h>.
This indirect include causes on MUSL redefinition of struct sysinfo when
included both <sys/sysinfo.h> and some of UAPI headers:

Hi,
could this fix be backported to stable releases?
Maybe safer to wait till v5.11 release.
Adjusted for stable/linux-4.9.y.
Kind regards,
Petr
