Building against recent kernel versions (noticed with 6.12) and -Werror
can fail because a macro MAX(a,b) is already defined in minmax.h or
kernel.h before 5.10.
Initially noticed on 6.12, but it now happens after the kernel bump to
6.6.109 as well (upstream commit 6183c65)

Add a pending upstream patch which replaces the MAX(a,b) macro to avoid
conflicts and allow compilation with 6.12 backports
