Bug#372957: linux-kernel-headers exposes kernel private data to userspace
Package: linux-kernel-headers
Version: 2.6.16.20-3
Severity: important
Followup-For: Bug #372957
Trying to build mythtv in a sid chroot just upgraded yields:
/usr/include/linux/input.h:801: error: 'kernel_ulong_t' does not name a type
/usr/include/linux/input.h:805: error: 'kernel_ulong_t' does not name a type
...
It appears that this header uses BITS_PER_LONG, among other
kernel-private data, outside of any __KERNEL__ ifdef, breaking the build
of anything including this header file.
