This is in today's -next and breaks the build of the KVM selftests:

In file included from rseq_test.c:24:
/home/broonie/git/bisect/usr/include/linux/rseq.h:62:1: error: use of 'rseq' with tag type that does not match previous declaration
   62 | struct rseq {
      | ^
./../rseq/rseq.c:78:7: note: previous use is here
   78 | union rseq {
      |       ^
In file included from rseq_test.c:24:
/home/broonie/git/bisect/usr/include/linux/rseq.h:62:8: error: redefinition of 'rseq'
   62 | struct rseq {
      |        ^
./../rseq/rseq.c:78:7: note: previous definition is here
   78 | union rseq {
      |       ^

since unlike the rseq tests the KVM rseq test includes the UAPI header
for rseq which the padded union conflicts with.
