17.10 failed with a similar message to: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/772848/ but applying that patch did not solve it, apparently there were fixes already on later versions of the tracked package. Update .gitmodules to ignore patches we apply to Buildroot.

How to update the Linux kernel version?
TODO I can only do it "easily" if the kernel headers are supported, check buildroot/package/linux-headers/Config.in.host to see if BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_12 is there. Once you've found a supported version:
cd linux
git rebase --onto v4.12 v4.9.6
# git rebase --onto <new> <old base with our patches on top>
And on buildroot_config_fragment edit:
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_VERSION_VALUE="4.12"
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_12=y
How to add new Buildroot options?
cd buildroot/output.x86_64~
make menuconfig
Hit / and search for the settings.
Save and quit.
diff .config.olg .config
Copy and paste the diff additions to buildroot_config_fragment.
