I've already replied to that patch posting saying why I don't like this. Even if I found this change as the only way to go and therefore had to take it in, the commit log is way too terse about what the problem is. And it must describe the horrifics that are now necessary to include this file in userspace after the change. It needs to describe in detail what the conflicting types and definitions in the kernel headers are that cause problems with userspace, and the exact sequence of includes userland has to make in order to get this right. And I require such enormously scary details in order to make it clear how bogus this change is. There is zero point in us sanitizing kernel headers for userspace usage if this kind of crap is still necessary. I mean tell me, why should we even bother in that case? And this is why I'm not taking in this changeset. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
