At the point this bug was opened, and at the time of your response,
linux version 4.6.4-1 was in the unstable suite.  And those build
errors unsurprisingly didn't go away with later kernel versions, but
the number of errors has grown further.

If ktap needs this module then it needs to be updated to work with
Linux 4.19 (which is what we'll use in Debian 10 "buster").  If not
then you could drop the module.  Either way, you would need to fix this
fairly quickly in order for ktap to be included in "buster".

But it looks like ktap is dead upstream now, so perhaps we should just
remove it from the archive instead?
