Subject: hdrinstall: remove asm/io.h from user visibility
From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
There's no excuse for userspace abusing this kernel header -- the kernel's
headers are not intended to provide a library of helper routines for
userspace. Using <asm/io.h> from userspace is broken on most architectures
anyway. Just say 'no'.
