ethtool build failure

[Heiko Thiery <heiko.thiery@gmail.com>]

Hi Michael et all,

I'm digging in the reason for a failure when building ethtool with
buildroot [1].

I see the following error:
---
data/buildroot/buildroot-test/instance-0/output/host/bin/i686-linux-gcc
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.  -I./uapi  -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wall -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE

In file included from ./uapi/linux/ethtool_netlink.h:12,
                 from netlink/desc-ethtool.c:7:

        ^~~~~~~~~~
---

The problems seems to be injected by the "warning: implicit
declaration of function".

When I move the __KERNEL_DIV_ROUND_UP macro right beside usage in
"uapi/linux/ethtool.h" the failure is gone.

Has anyone an idea what goes wrong?
