I always forget to test uml. But a quick test build seems to work until
it hits this:

arch/um/drivers/slip_kern.c: In function 'slip_init':
arch/um/drivers/slip_kern.c:34: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'header_cache_update'
arch/um/drivers/slip_kern.c:35: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'hard_header_cache'
arch/um/drivers/slip_kern.c:36: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'hard_header'
