there is a conflict between netinet/if_ether.h provided by musl and
linux/if_ether.h provided by the linux headers:
In file included from passt.h:185,
from tcp_vu.c:21:
/usr/include/netinet/if_ether.h:115:8: error: redefinition of 'struct ethhdr'
115 | struct ethhdr {
| ^~~~~~
In file included from /usr/include/linux/virtio_net.h:32,
from tcp_vu.c:17:
/usr/include/linux/if_ether.h:173:8: note: originally defined here
173 | struct ethhdr {
| ^~~~~~
The kernel headers provide a flag to disable the definition in this case,
__UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR (see /usr/include/linux/if_ether.h comment).
