We try to keep our out of tree kernel modules compiling against recent

My belief is that usually we're only 1-2 releases behind, 4 is more than
I usually expect. Have we been particularly pressed with other issues
recently?
No more than usual I guess. I know my attention has definitely been
elsewhere lately.
Let me look into it and scope the effort to pull us up to 5.4. The 5.0
kernel isn't even
listed at kernel.org with 4.19 being the latest LTS that we support.
If 5.4 is going to be
LTS as well then it makes sense to support it.
I tried building against the 5.4.2 kernel from kernel.org and found the
inet frags issue that David pointed out
To see if there were any other problems I then I ran 'make -i' but found
nothing else. It should just be
a compat layer fixup for the inet frags issue.
Maybe I can get a patch out for 5.4 support next week if no unforeseen
complications
arise. Hopefully that can help David out in a timely manner as well.
