I am not a huge fan of those linux-headers patches buried deep into
defconfig-specific locations. Indeed, I just tried today to build a SH4
toolchain... and fell precisely into those problems, and your patch is
not going to fix them.

What about having the patches in package/linux-headers/ for the few
linux headers versions that we officially support ?
