Yonghong Song d317b0a8ac libbpf: Fix a compilation error with xsk.c for ubuntu 16.04
When syncing latest libbpf repo to bcc, ubuntu 16.04 (4.4.0 LTS kernel)
failed compilation for xsk.c:
  In file included from /tmp/debuild.0jkauG/bcc/src/cc/libbpf/src/xsk.c:23:0:
  /tmp/debuild.0jkauG/bcc/src/cc/libbpf/src/xsk.c: In function ‘xsk_get_ctx’:

  declaration of function ‘container_of’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

Commit 2f6324a3937f ("libbpf: Support shared umems between queues and devices")
added include file <linux/list.h>, which uses macro "container_of".
xsk.c file also includes <linux/ethtool.h> before <linux/list.h>.

In a more recent distro kernel, <linux/ethtool.h> includes <linux/kernel.h>
which contains the macro definition for "container_of". So compilation is all fine.
But in ubuntu 16.04 kernel, <linux/ethtool.h> does not contain <linux/kernel.h>
which caused the above compilation error.

Let explicitly add <linux/kernel.h> in xsk.c to avoid compilation error
in old distro's.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
