Bug Description

So when 5.1 comes we will also need a fix for
/var/lib/dkms/dpdk-rte-kni/17.11.6/build/kni_net.c:40:10: fatal error: kni_fifo.h: No such file or directory
 #include <kni_fifo.h>

Required change in /usr/src/dpdk-rte-kni-17.11.6/kni_net.c
From
 #include <kni_fifo.h>
To
 #include "kni_fifo.h"

Maybe the kernel formerly provided it, this makes it use its real own file.
OTOH this works in 18.11.x and that particular change isn't upstream there. Many others are, maybe they added an include path to pick it up.

Eventually it might be only an artifact of my silly test setup (so keep it low for now), Kernel Team will report it when a real Ubuntu 5.1 or later is coming around for Bionic.
