Hi list,

Now that I've had a little more time to look at this and I'm not on a
train with exceptionally awful connectivity........

iproute2 commit 6256f8c9e45f01187b297a576e148534a393c990  introduced a
backup definition of 'offsetof' macro in utils.h presumably to cover the
case where it wasn't defined elsewhere.   Anything post that iproute2
commit (Dave's tc-adv repo as example) will have this macro defined
courtesy 'utils.h'.

According to various man pages, 'offsetof' should be defined as part of
'stddef.h' which q_cake.c does not include.  By including 'stddef.h' in
q_cake.c I can get q_cake.c to compile and I think that this is a more
correct solution than that proposed previously.  I'm sure someone will
come up with an even more correct solution :-)

For full disclosure I should point out that toke's iproute2 4.0.0 + cake
repo still fails to build completely on my Linux mint 17.2 box *BUT*
with the following diff it at least finishes 'cake' whereas it used to
blow up over 'offsetof' :-)
