In fact, its better to avoid any +AD4- implicit includes so that if we ever want to remove includes from +AD4- other headers we can do so without disturbing this driver. IMHO approach with minimal amount of headers is nice just because it's easier to check if everything is in place. I mean attempt to compile will immediately reveal a missing header. So that's what I do - I remove as many inclusions as I may until stuff compiles. But with approach of explicit inclusion it's much easier to include much more headers than really needed. The only way to figure out if header is really required is to manually check all used functions in the current source which is way too unreliable and probably nobody will do it ever anyways. And that's how we'll get more stale and pointless inclusions. -Alexey -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
