You have got to give me a little more than 10 minutes to respond before
assuming that I would not appear... I don't think I've ignored any
previous emails on this subject and the only issues has been some people
not receiving my responses for unknown reasons (agressive spam filter?).

I have no problem with this patch, have it sitting with some other
non-urgent patches and in case it doesn't appear upstream it should
piggyback with whatever I have to send.

I still don't know why the bare-metal toolchain couldn't just add a
-D__linux__.  I understand that this define is expected to be always
present while compiling kernel headers so that there is no good reason
to even bother testing for it, which is why I have no issue with the
patch. But it seems it would make your life a lot easier if you had it
defined.
