> Trivial patch

I know it seems rediculous, but anything we export to userspace, as we
do in this UAPI header, could be potentially be used by some piece of
source out there.

I'd rather just leave it be, you can add a comment saying it's unused
if you wish, but I'd really rather not remove it and run the risk of
breaking someone's build out there.

Thanks.
