The probe API is added as an inline helper in patch 11 according to
discussion in [1], so the definition of "struct page_frag_cache" is
needed, so I am not sure what is the point of using
"struct page_frag_cache;" here and then remove it and include
mm_types_task.h in patch 11.

It seems unnecessay, will remove that.

It would be better to list out why it is better that way as I am failing
to see it that way yet as I think it is better to use the explicit
header file instead the implicit header file.
