Bug#317857: if_fddi.h does not include netdevice.h



Package: linux-kernel-headers
Version: 2.6.12.0-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

[I'm not sure about the severity of this bug, but since it prevents a
package from building, I figured I'd take a chance.]

net-tools fails to build with the following error:

> cc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O2 -Wall  -I. -idirafter ./include/ -Ilib -I/tmp/buildd/net-tools-1.60 -idirafter /tmp/buildd/net-tools-1.60/include    -c -o fddi.o fddi.c

> make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2

gen is a net_device_stats structure, which is declared in netdevice.h.
The attached patch makes if_fddi.h include netdevice.h.
