Comment:

 I'm not sure if this should be handled on tor side. Unfortunately, seems
 the kernel broke this and fixed it later (?). I can see that 4.4.118 is
 not a thing anymore but rather 4.4.124 is the latest. And I bet they did
 since 4.14.24 fixed it according to earlier comment.

 I'm closing this because there are no actionable items for us. Please re-
 open if the kernel actually didn't fix it but I would personally avoid
 having #ifdef on the kernel version...
