This won't compile if I apply it.

You really have to be clear when you submit patches like this.

Since you only CC:'d the networking developers for this one
patch, there is _ZERO_ context for us to work with to understand
what's going on.

You have to also CC: us on the other relevant changes and your
"[PATCH 00/33]" posting that explains what is happening.
