Commit 5d5b4128c4ca ("devlink: introduce flash update overwrite mask")
added a usage of _BITUL to the UAPI <linux/devlink.h> header, but failed
to include the header file where it was defined. It happens that this
does not break any existing kernel include chains because it gets
included through other sources. However, when including the UAPI headers
in a userspace application (such as devlink in iproute2), _BITUL is not
defined.

I believe this is the appropriate fix for the issue Dave reported at [1], vs
working around it by including uapi/linux/const.h in the devlink.c file in
iproute2.
