Thanks for checking.

Let me sort this out, I'll make sure it's in my queue and that I will submit
it explicitly.

I was following the netdev documentation (https://www.kernel.org/doc/
Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.txt) and so I checked your patchwork queue 
here
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=*

along with GregKHs stable queue for 4.15 as well as pulling his latest 
linux-4.15.y stable and saw no sign of it. And somehow I see no sign of this 
patch. Sorry if I am missing it somehow.

Please check my stable patchwork queue, it should be in there.

Thanks.

[4.15-stable 1/1] uapi/if_ether.h: move __UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR libc define

[Mark Asselstine]

Please promote commit da360299b6734135a5f66d7db458dcc7801c826a [uapi/
if_ether.h: move __UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR libc define] to linux-4.15.y stable. 
Without this fix users of the uapi headers will run into the issue as 
described in the commit log. Specifically we have seen this with building 
ebtables.

Thanks,
Mark Asselstine
