Happy to do that from my end - however, right now it includes
linux/compiler.h, which is GPL-2.0. I don't know what the policy around that
is - is it just a statement about the licence of the header itself, or does it
effectively include its dependencies?

FWIW, linux/compiler.h is also included from bpftool.

If preferrable, I can replace the linux/compiler.h include by just using
__attribute__((__unused__)) directly or by using a (void) cast to avoid the
unused-parameter pedantry.

Greetings,

Andres Freund
