Hi Michal,

These 3 patches fix build issues encountered in the 6.1 release with
either older kernel headers (pre v4.11) or with musl-libc.

In case you want to add a prebuilt toolchain with your release procedure
you can use those binaries:

https://github.com/Broadcom/stbgcc-8.3/releases/tag/stbgcc-8.3-0.4

Changes in v2:

- reworked the first commit to bring in if.h, this is a more invasive
   change but it allows us to drop the ALTIFNAMSIZ override and it might
   be easier to maintain moving forward

- reworked the third commit to avoid using non standard integer types
Any feedback on whether you prefer this version versus the v1?
I like v2 more and unless I run into some trouble with it, I'm going to
merge it this week with the rest of the backlog.

Michal
