The header files being removed are already included by a common header file osapi_linux.h. The file osapi_linux.h is included by all the source files.

No. The header files being removed are just a minor clean up that I thought can be included along with the fix as they were kind of related. I guess I could use a separate patch. > > > #include <linux/timer.h> > > > #include <linux/delay.h> > > > #include <linux/wait.h> > > > +#include <linux/semaphore.h> > > Don't put #include in a .h file if at all possible please. I guess the header files can be included explicitly within the source files but it requires a bigger change to the driver. There are some header files which are included by all the source files and contain some commonly used header files. These commonly used header files will otherwise have to be included separately in each of the source files. > > > > > > > #include <linux/cache.h> > > > > > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/ath6kl/os/linux/netbuf.c > b/drivers/staging/ath6kl/os/linux/netbuf.c > > > index 63fa49c..15e5d04 100644 > > > --- a/drivers/staging/ath6kl/os/linux/netbuf.c > > > +++ b/drivers/staging/ath6kl/os/linux/netbuf.c > > > @@ -20,8 +20,6 @@ > > > // > > > // Author(s): ="Atheros" > > > //------------------------------------------------------------------- > ----------- > > > -#include <linux/kernel.h> > > > -#include <linux/skbuff.h> > > Why remove these? > > Totally confused, > > greg k-h -- 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
