Patches like this shouldn't be going into upstream IMO.

As mentioned in your first PR there aren't too many instances of conditional compilation. Yet. This PR and the other would add two.

I'm the maintainer for this for openSUSE distros where I have to deal with backports breaking things. If I upstreamed those patches that'd be yet more conditional compilation code. If you multiply this out for every somewhat popular distro then this repo would eventually become a mess.

Patching backport issues is really a distro maintainer's responsibility.

@chrBrd Yeah it becomes more reasonable the more I think about it. I'll go submit these as source patches for KyleGospo/gasket-dkms I suppose.

Good call!

Apologies if my comment came off a bit blunt.
