I believe it has a compatibility option which causes it to define that
macro. I don't know what version it was introduced, since I do not use
non-free compilers.

I'm pretty sure that this version of the Intel compiler can not handle
other constructs in the kernel headers, which is why it isn't
supported. But the patch seems reasonable for userspace, for the
