Ooops. That's what happens when people (like me) start to think about

It was intentional use of 4.1 headers just because 4.2 headers didn't
exist in buildroot. See http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2015-August/135336.html

But now we'll have 4.2 headers soon and I will update my defconfigs anyways.
