2.6.27rc1 installs a broken /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h

Hi All,

When doing "make headers_install" 2.6.27rc1 install a broken /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h

The problem are the 2 userspace lines of the following part of videodev2.h:

#ifdef __KERNEL__
#include <linux/time.h> /* need struct timeval */
#include <linux/compiler.h> /* need __user */
#else
#define __user
#include <sys/time.h>
#endif

2.6.27rc1 seems to handle __user usage in userspace itself now, simply by removing __user + whitespace after it resulting in the following in userspace for the 2 lines in the userspace of the if else above:

#define #include <sys/time.h>

The fix for 2/6/27rc1 is to simply remove the "#define __user" line, but I wonder how that will effect our usage with older kernels?

Regards,

Hans
