[PATCH v2 3/3] uapi/if_ether.h: prevent redefinition of struct ethhdr

From: Hauke Mehrtens
Date: Tue Apr 18 2017 - 17:01:30 EST


From: David Heidelberger <david.heidelberger@xxxxxxx>

Musl provides its own ethhdr struct definition. Add a guard to prevent
its definition of the appropriate musl header has already been included.
