Didn't I already report this ?

I thought that was a 4.9 issue. Let me look into this later today,
thanks for the report...

Hm, yeah, looks to be the same issue that 4.9 had. I resolve that by
ripping out the whole series, which I don't want to do here. Let me see
if I can resolve it simpler...


Apply 8ee912dab95f ("alpha: fix build failures") and fix conflict by picking
the new include files. I am currently rebuilding with that applied to ensure
that it breaks nothing else.
