Have we checked that every file which directly or indirectly includes memcontrol.h does not have an requirement for rcupdate.h and mm.h, where that requirement was satisfied only via this nested inclusion? For all architectures and for all config selections? Think not. Sadly, removal of nested includes is a *big* deal, and it takes quite a lot of time to get it all shaken down. If we can confirm that all files (.c and .h) which include memcontrol.h also directly include rcupdate.h and mm.h then we're _probably_ ok (modulo ordering issues). Otherwise we should perhaps be taking a second look at how to fix the sparc problem. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
