But looking at how other architectures do it; about half do the forward declaration, and half use an include. So I guess this is fine. I noticed you were getting a lot of these patches done for removing linux/vmalloc.h from asm-generic/io.h. Do you want me to push this through my queue or are you planning sending them through another route? -Stafford
