This looks like a feature patch... somewhat annoying to have in
Buildroot. Is there any chance of getting this upstream?

This is a somewhat odd combination of licenses. Especially using GPLv2
for a header, when the library itself is BSD-3c.

The main concern is really the feature patch. The rest looks fine.
