All my patch does is to remove "#ifndef __KERNEL__"'s around userspace #define's from the userspace headers, so it's purely cosmetical. Except when userspace wrongly defines __KERNEL__, no header-y<->unifdef-y should ever have any non-cosmetical effect. That said, we really want what I called "cosmetical" - not having "#if{,n}def __KERNEL__" in any userspace headers - it's simply that this is not a serious bug. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
