Sven,
do we really need to rename the function is the original one does not exist in kernels < 4.7 ? Or maybe it exists but does something else ?
Not necessarily but Linus' noticed for a different function that some distros (or stable maintainers) backported the function which we introduced. Thus we used the same trick to solve the conflict.
Yup, thanks for reminding!
Cheers,
