But then, when I tried to run offwaketime with it, it fails:

[root@jouet bpf]# ./offwaketime ls
bpf_load_program() err=22
BPF_LDX uses reserved fields
bpf_load_program() err=22
BPF_LDX uses reserved fields
[root@jouet bpf]#

If I remove this patch and try again, it works:

[root@jouet bpf]# ./offwaketime | head -4

So, I'm stopping here so that I can push what I have to Ingo, then I'll get
back to this, hopefully by then you beat me and I have just to retest 8-)
