Patch has been included into next tree [1]. If not reverted, it would fix the
problem for newer kernel headers. Distros using MUSL (Buildroot and OpenEmbedded)
will have to keep this patch for older headers and update it as we might add
more <sys/sysinfo.h> in the future, but that's not that difficult.

Kind regards,
Petr
