Agreed, I just wanted to make a "quick fix" that works.

Alright, I tried to update "go-golang-org-x-sys" to 0.8.0, here's the
patch:

Description: Text Data

It seems that the dependent packages are fine with that.  I haven't
checked everything but I did some cherry-picking across the dependent
packages and build some of them and found no build errors.  Please find
my check-list attached.
