Dave,

I am going to work on it right now, with no further delays, as I've been
doing with all the reports I've got. I didn't receive any report
about this one for some reason, and that's why I didn't say anything.
So thanks for nagging.

So for the normal scenarios with my code disabled, aside for one problem
in day1, all of the failures were build problems.

To be quite honest, the interactions between configs are being quite
"funny", and spanning more problems than I anticipated.

What I am doing here, is building the patches against a couple of
randconfigs, and some more targeted ones before I send them to you.

If you have any other advise on how to handle this, I'd be happy to take
them.

On the specifics of this bug, I verified this config compiles okay in
your tree + my patches at the day I last sent them. I also verified it
breaks on the tree today.

The reason seems to be that some other patch tweaked with the header
files in an unrelated patch, and the static_branch definition that was
getting to us in sock.h, is no longer getting there.

Including it explicitly fixes it here. I will again pass through a
battery of randconfigs on my own, and send you a fix.

Sorry again for the trouble.
