This include is redundant now that you include dma-mapping.h.

As Jakub previously mentioned, this involves including dma-mapping.h,
which is relatively heavy, to each source file which includes skbuff.h,
i.e. almost the whole kernel :D
I addressed this in my series, which I hope will land soon after yours
(sending new revision in 24-48 hours), so you can leave it as it is. Or
otherwise you can pick my solution (or come up with your own :D).
