commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=035567b2793f3649e2ddc6cd34b75dd643f47d73
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

This commit fixes the build of pppd with toolchain using Linux 4.8
headers. The patch has been taken from a pull request pending on the
Github project, which is unfortunately somewhat dead.

The fix is not the most beautiful one, but it does the job, in a piece
of source code that's anyway rather messy in terms of mixing userspace
headers and kernel headers.

Fixes:

  and numerous similar other build failures
