Sorry for the delay! So, once you pull these two headers in, are there more
follow-up dependencies with other headers required on your old test system?
I'd also be fine with keeping SOL_NETLINK here as is, but I would try to
have the if_link.h in the tools/ include infra, so we have all XDP definitions
available and up to date from the lib's pov. The dependency for if_link.h
seems minimal and probably enough to to only get in this single header. Could
you give that a try?

Thanks a lot,
Daniel
