Re: Should #ifdef __KERNEL__ be added before #include <spaces.h> in asm-mips/addrspace.h ?

Ralf,

The problem in asm-mips/addrspace.h when including
<spaces.h> is different. The problem is the path.

spaces.h lives in asm-mips/mach-generic,

Only when compiling kernel, asm-mips/mach-generic
is in the include path, because arch/mips/Makefile
defines it.

However, when compiling the user-space apps, they
don't know how to find spaces.h when they indirectly
include <asm/addrspace.h>
