Hi guys, I wonder how easily the include/uapi/* is being changed these days. The patch: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/405594361340a2ec32f8e2b115c142df0e180d8e.1426193719.git.luto@kernel.org breaks dosemu (and perhaps everyone else who used to restore the segregs by hands). And the fix involves both autoconf magic and run-time magic, so it is not even trivial. I realize this patch may be good to have in general, but breaking userspace without a single warning is a bit discouraging. Seems like the old "we don't break userspace" rule have gone.
