These changes are completely bogus.

Where are the definitions of the data types for "struct in6_addr" and
"struct ipv6hdr" coming from.

I'm not even going to look at these patches until you:

1) Properly audit the files.  Removing an include and typing "make"
   is not auditing the header file requriements.  Reading the code
   and looking at where declarations and definitions actually come
   from _is_.

2) Write a real commit message, this one is way too terse and tells me
   nothing.  Explain why each header file was removed, and what the
   justification is.
