Maybe you can > send the changes upstream to Linux instead? Yes, these come from Linux and the fixes should be sent there. The process is a bit cumbersome but at least well documented; I've done it for a couple of pmu-events files before, e.g. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=28396b7df09b9565f404591c9945eac43526cb3f The process is documented in the Linux source tree at Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
