Yes, it does not work for kernel 4.11. The "#ifndef" will eventually be replaced by "#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(4, 13, 0)", but that will not work until kernel 4.13-rc1 is released. You asked about 4.13-rc0, but that entity does not exist here. If your kernel Makefile does indeed have 4.13, then use the kernel version test.
So the main question is kernel Makefile does indeed have 4.13 ?
No, and it won't until upstream releases 4.13-rc1. Merge window kernels are called 4.12+ until that point. The RPM versioning in Fedora is a construct to reflect that we are working on what will be the 4.13 code base.
As I completely understand that we test it , I ask if is it possible change kernel Makefile to reflect the new release , seems to me more correct ... .
Anyway, hopefully, these merge windows are short and we already have 4.13-rc1 released since yesterday.
Thanks,
