This error report shows that breakage can occur with applications that
include linux/errqueue.h before the libc time headers.

The libc-compat definitions in this patch set only fix compilation
when uapi headers are included after the userspace headers.

These errors indeed go away when errqueue.h is included after the
userspace time includes, as in the diff below.

For the inverse, the libc headers need additional #if __UAPI_DEF_FOO
changes, as described in include/uapli/linux/libc-compat.h. Those
changes are a noop without kernel definitions, so arguably that libc
patch should be merged before this kernel patch.

I will remove this patch set from the patchwork queue for now.
