Hi antti,

I've just updated my local branch of your experimental branch and got
some conflicts because you moved the header inclusions from the C file
to the header file. Why is that? I thought it was really bad practice to
have includes in header files.

http://git.linuxtv.org/anttip/media_tree.git/commitdiff/7d28d8226cffd1ad6e555b36f6f9855d8bba8645

Because "struct state" was inside af9013.h and I added "struct af9033_config" to state. Due to that af9033_config visibility I was forced to move af9013.h include to the af9015.h and moved all the others too.

I see, I just learnedthat having includes in headers is just something really bad, possibly causing include loops etc etc. Its just something that's generally not needed and should be avoided. ideally anyway :)
What is problem you has met?
Well it's just movement of those headers caused merges to conflict and fail :)

DVB USB driver header file is something like private place for data other than code as it is not included by any other driver.
