What Repercussion does this have wrt APIs headers for future. Provided this
is a local patch. I think removing header includes like this can cause
issues.

breaks the builds of net-tools.

We remove the new includes until such a time that userspace can adapt to the
new kernel headers.

It's something we could drop in the future, but these are mods that have
been done since -rc4, and could very well be undone if they start breaking
things like this.

The alternative is to try and fix the userspace applications, but I
currently don't see a fast way to do that (and I'm now officially on
vacation).

Cheers,

Bruce

Imo if we can fix apps that should be first choice. Second choice would be
run remaining patches by lkml or atleast report the problem. Real lesson is
to not wait for kernel version updates so late in release cycle.

Feel free to fix ppp in a similar way to the other change. It is likely a
header inclusion
order change.

I'm just doing the kernel header changes, I can't always detangle the user
space issues,
that's where others need to step in and help.

There's no issue in carrying it, since it isn't like we are developing
software that will
be incompatible through the change, or that will have ABI issues.
