If you don't actually dereference the pointer, you should just be able
to declare:

	struct dentry;

and be done with it, right?  You don't _need_ the includes to have just
pointers.

Ah, looks like an established trick in kernel include files.
I guess I can revert the other, seq_file related change then as well.
Thank you. Will change my local copy.
