From: David Heidelberger <david.heidelberger@ixit.cz> Subject: uapi/kernel.h: glibc specific inclusion of sysinfo.h including sysinfo.h from kernel.h makes no sense whatsoever, but removing it breaks glibc's userspace header, which includes kernel.h instead of sysinfo.h from their sys/sysinfo.h. this seems to be a historical mistake. on musl, including any header that uses kernel.h directly or indirectly plus sys/sysinfo.h will produce a compile error due to redefinition of struct sysinfo from sys/sysinfo.h. so for now, only include it on glibc or when including from kernel in order not to break their headers.
