You need to reorder the patches so that defines are added first. Otherwise if someone lands on this patch during bisection the kernel will not build: ../net/ipv4/ping.c: In function ‘ping_supported’: ../net/ipv4/ping.c:456:39: error: ‘ICMP_EXT_ECHO’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘ICMP_ECHO’? 456 | (family == AF_INET && type == ICMP_EXT_ECHO && code == 0) || | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ICMP_ECHO ../net/ipv4/ping.c:456:39: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in ../net/ipv4/ping.c:458:40: error: ‘ICMPV6_EXT_ECHO_REQUEST’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘ICMPV6_ECHO_REQUEST’? 458 | (family == AF_INET6 && type == ICMPV6_EXT_ECHO_REQUEST && code == 0); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ICMPV6_ECHO_REQUEST ../net/ipv4/ping.c:459:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] 459 | } | ^ cc1: some warnings being treated as errors make[3]: *** [net/ipv4/ping.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [net/ipv4] Error 2 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: *** [net] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [__sub-make] Error 2
