I am not accepting this patch because all files in include/linux are 
automatically
regenerated from kernel 'make install_headers'. No exceptions. If you want to 
change
a header in include/linux it has to go through upstream kernel inclusion.


It would be wrong to add this to the actual kernel header I think.

Do you have another suggestion for fixing iproute2 compile?

Thanks,
Ben

Works for me from openSUSE Tumbleweed to SLE11 SP4 (kernel 3.0). The
build on SLE11 SP2 (also 3.0 but older headers in /usr/include)
fails with unknown MS_PRIVATE and MS_REC in lib/bpf.c
Newer systems have these defined in 

Including  directly in lib/bpf.c fixes that but if we do
that, a copy of the file would have to be included.

I'm not sure if it is acceptable to modify a file which is supposed to
be a direct copy of kernel uapi header.

Seems Fedora-20 and below fail, hopefully this fixes
