Hi Yamada-san,

There was recently a netfilter build error in linux-next for which
a patch was posted by Taehee Yoo.  The patch works (fixes the build
error) but I don't see how or why.

My build error report is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/fa7a7824-44df-c058-dba2-ec29c5028361@infradead.org/T/#u


Would you take a look at it and try to explain why the patch works?

The patch's email thread begins here:

Thanks.
