Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] uapi: include time.h from errqueue.h

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>

It was reported that linux/errqueue.h requires linux/time.h, but that
adding the include directly may cause userspace conflicts between
linux/time.h and glibc time.h:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/10/10

Address the conflicts using the standard libc-compat approach, then
add the #include to errqueue.h

The first patch is a resubmit. It was previously submitted to
tip/timers/core, but given the commit history, the maintainer
suggested this tree, instead.

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/10/748

This also allows sending the follow-up as part of the patchset.

Willem de Bruijn (2):
  uapi glibc compat: make linux/time.h compile with user time.h files
  errqueue: include linux/time.h
