I think this patch also breaks the userspace build of lib/raid6/.  Which
is going away in Christoph's series anyway, but maybe it would make
sense to drop this patch (and patch 8 which depends on this, I think)
from this series for now?  That would make it a bit easier to take the
rest through crc-next.
