Missing bugzilla references.
Also we do not have kernel 4.12 Leap 42.2, in is unclear why this change is required for the maintained release.

take newer request thanks
There is no bugzilla report. Although 42.2 does not support any 4.12 kernels, there are 42.2 users that run kernel:HEAD kernels, which will soon be offering 4.12-rcX kernels. My change, which is in the Factory version of VirtualBox, was published to have VB be available to them. Having this change is important, as it is possible to fix the compile warnings and errors but still have a VB kernel module that crashes the host.
We can reference bsc#1040641
