Thanks for your patch, which is now commit bc49d8169aa72295 ("mctp: Add
MCTP base") in net-next.

When building an allmodconfig kernel, I got:

security/selinux/hooks.c: In function 'socket_type_to_security_class':
security/selinux/hooks.c:1334:32: error: 'SECCLASS_MCTP_SOCKET' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'SECCLASS_SCTP_SOCKET'?

The needed definition should be auto-generated from the above file, but
there seems to be an issue with the dependencies, as the file was not
regenerated.

Manually removing security/selinux/flask.h in the build dir fixed the
issue.

I'm building in a separate build directory, using make -j 12.
