Fixes:

And many more.

The sysinfo structure definition in linux/sysinfo.h (which gets indirectly
included from linux/kernel.h) conflicts with the definition in sys/sysinfo.h
when building against the musl C library, leading to build failures:

arm-linux-gcc -Wno-unused-result -Wsign-compare -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes \
 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Os -fPIC -DPSUTIL_VERSION=430 \
  -c psutil/_psutil_linux.c -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.5/psutil/_psutil_linux.o

The suggested solution by the musl developers is to duplicate the needed
structures and defines inline instead of including the kernel headers, which
is unlikely to be acceptable upstream - So instead mark python-psutil (and
its reverse dependencies) as unavailable on musl.
