Hello Sergei, hello other maintainers,

i'm working for the OpenEmbedded project and we hit the same busybox problem you mentioned in <http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/31164/>.

It doesn't look like you got much feedback on you patch suggestion. Did it made it's way to the kernel sources? Or where there any objections on it?

Hm, I received a confirmation, that my fix was applied
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg103860.html

No, i think it didn't. This confirmation is related to a patch from Joe Perches to the MAINTAINERS file.

However, it indeed didn't find their way into the mainline. I have no idea why, received no objections.

What are the maintainers saying?

I'm sending the reply to the resp. mailing lists too; hope you don't mind.

That posting doesn't say that your patch got applied, it says that Joe Perches's MAINTAINERS file patch got applied.

Look at the context of what I'm replying to, rather than the fact that you see "Applied." and it happens to be in a thread you started with another patch.

Your patch is not necessary, current iproute2 sources compile just fine without your change. iproute2 got changed to include a local copy of linux/ip_tunnel.h which is modified so that it compiles properly in userspace.
