Subject: ixp4xx_hss: fix build failure due to missing linux/module.h inclusion
From: Florian Fainelli <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 0b836ddde177bdd5790ade83772860940bd481ea ]
Commit 36a1211970193ce215de50ed1e4e1272bc814df1 (netprio_cgroup.h:
dont include module.h from other includes) made the following build
error on ixp4xx_hss pop up:
CC [M] drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.o
drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1412:20: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'
before string constant
drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1413:25: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'
before string constant
drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1414:21: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'
before string constant
drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1415:19: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'
before string constant
make[8]: *** [drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.o] Error 1
This was previously hidden because ixp4xx_hss includes linux/hdlc.h which
includes linux/netdevice.h which includes linux/netprio_cgroup.h which
used to include linux/module.h. The real issue was actually present since
the initial commit that added this driver since it uses macros from
linux/module.h without including this file.
