We are already using generic-y for a bunch of > headers there... While we are at it, param.h and pci.h appear to be candidates for the same treatment, along with delay.h and auxvec.h. mutex.h as well... BTW, we probably can kill arch/um/include/asm/asm-offsets.h - everything in there is using generated/asm-offsets.h directly. FWIW, I'd probably kill current.h as well - replace get_current() in arch/um/kernel/process.c with get_current_pid() (i.e. task_pid_nr(current)), kill HOST_TASK_PID and switch arch/x86/um/bugs_32.c to use of get_current_pid() and we can switch to asm-generic/current.h just fine. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
