[PATCH] net: dsa: microchip: ksz8xxx: Replace kernel.h with the necessary inclusions
Posted by Christophe JAILLET 3 years, 10 months ago
When kernel.h is used in the headers it adds a lot into dependency hell,
especially when there are circular dependencies are involved.

Replace kernel.h inclusion with the list of what is really being used.
