OK, so the include graph has blown up in our faces.
This is what I came up with. Haven't tested it a lot yet. Thoughts?
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>
Subject: mm-per-thread-vma-caching-fix-3
Attempt to untangle header files.
Prior to this patch:
mm.h does not require sched.h
sched.h does not require mm.h
sched.h requires vmacache.h
vmacache.h requires mm.h
After this patch:
mm.h still does not require sched.h
sched.h still does not require mm.h
sched.h does not require vmacache.h
mm.h does not require vmacache.h
vmacache.h requires (and includes) mm.h
vmacache.h requires (and includes) sched.h
To do all this, the three "#define VMACACHE_foo" lines were moved to
sched.h.
The inclusions of sched.h and mm.h into vmacache.h are actually
unrequired because the .c files include mm.h and sched.h directly, but
I put them in there for cargo-cult reasons.
vmacache_flush() no longer needs to be implemented in cpp - make it so.
