sock.h is pretty heavily used (5k objects rebuilt on x86 after

This decreases the number of rebuilt objects when bpf.h
is touched from ~5k to ~1k.

There's a lot of missing includes this was masking. Primarily
in networking tho, this time.

It would be nice if we used the number of files rebuilt because of a header file change as another metric that the kernel is evaluated with from release to release (or even on a commit by commit basis). Food for thought.
