We're about to do some reshuffling in networking headers and make
some of the file lose the implicit includes. This results in:

In file included from net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:26:
include/net/compat.h:57:23: error: conflicting types for ‘uintptr_t’
 #define compat_uptr_t uintptr_t
                       ^~~~~~~~~
include/asm-generic/compat.h:22:13: note: in expansion of macro ‘compat_uptr_t’
 typedef u32 compat_uptr_t;
             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from include/linux/limits.h:6,
                 from include/linux/kernel.h:7,
                 from net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:14:
include/linux/types.h:37:24: note: previous declaration of ‘uintptr_t’ was here
 typedef unsigned long  uintptr_t;
                        ^~~~~~~~~

Currently net/compat.h depends on linux/compat.h being included
first. After the upcoming changes this would break the 32bit build.

Not sure who officially maintains this. Arnd, Christoph any objections?

Ah, damn it, I obviously copied the wrong error into the commit
message. This is the correct one (after removing include of ethtool.h
from netdevice.h):


In file included from ../net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:26:
include/net/compat.h:60:40: error: unknown type name ‘compat_uptr_t’; did you mean ‘compat_ptr_ioctl’?

Looks good to me. I would actually go one step further and completely
remove this #ifdef, if possible. In the old days, it was not possible to
include linux/compat.h on 32-bit architectures, but now this should just
work without an #ifdef.

Indeed, that appears to work, v2 coming up, thanks!
