Looks like others also agree, it's been submitted a few days ago:
	https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250408132341.4175633-1-vannapurve@google.com

We'll pick it up in a few days for inclusion in the next round of stable
updates, thanks for the report, I didn't realize it was causing build
errors, which is odd that it didn't show up in all of the testing before
now.

thanks,
