The very first patch in the series updates the internal copy of the
kernel header to 4.15-rc7 and ensures that systems with old distro
copies use the internal header instead.

Just as we have been doing for other kernel headers for a long time.

So it should build on everything. There are far newer needed symbols
than the one above as well..
