[ Upstream commit 4a91cb61bb995e5571098188092e296192309c77 ]
glibc's net/if.h contains copies of definitions from linux/if.h and these
conflict and cause build failures if both files are included by application
source code. Changes in uapi headers, which fixed header file dependencies to
include linux/if.h when it was needed, e.g. commit 1ffad83d, made the
net/if.h and linux/if.h incompatibilities visible as build failures for
userspace applications like iproute2 and xtables-addons.
This patch fixes compile errors when glibc net/if.h is included before
linux/if.h:

The cases where linux/if.h is included before net/if.h need a similar fix in
the glibc side, or the order of include files can be changed userspace
code as a workaround.
This change was tested in x86 userspace on Debian unstable with
scripts/headers_compile_test.sh:
$ make headers_install && \
cd usr/include && ../../scripts/headers_compile_test.sh -l -k
...
cc -Wall -c -nostdinc -I /usr/lib/gcc/i586-linux-gnu/5/include -I /usr/lib/gcc/i586-linux-gnu/5/include-fixed -I . -I /home/mcfrisk/src/linux-2.6/usr/headers_compile_test_include.2uX2zH -I /home/mcfrisk/src/linux-2.6/usr/headers_compile_test_include.2uX2zH/i586-linux-gnu -o /dev/null ./linux/if.h_libc_before_kernel.h
