That's a tricky situation. linux/sched.h includes indirectly linux/completion.h which includes linux/wait.h. By including sched.h in wait.h, the side effect is completion.h will then include a blank wait.h file and trigger a compilation error every time wait.h is included by any file. > > Surprisingly many other files still don't seem to be affected. But this > is actually a better solution (to include sched.h in wait.h). It does not affect all files include wait.h because TASK_* macros are used with #define statements only. So it has no effect unless some file tries to use a macro which used TASK_*. It seems the usual on kernel is to include both wait.h and sched.h when necessary. IMO your patch is fine.
