[ Upstream commit0894da849f] Including asm/cacheflush.h first results in the following build error when trying to build sparc32:allmodconfig, because 'struct page' has not been declared, and the function declaration ends up creating a separate (private) declaration of struct page (as a result of function arguments being in the scope of the function declaration and definition, not in global scope). The C scoping rules do not just affect variable visibility, they also affect type declaration visibility. The end result is that when the actual call site is seen in <linux/highmem.h>, the 'struct page' type in the caller is not the same 'struct page' that the function was declared with, resulting in: In file included from arch/sparc/include/asm/page.h:10:0, ... from drivers/staging/media/omap4iss/iss_video.c:15: include/linux/highmem.h: In function 'clear_user_highpage': include/linux/highmem.h:137:31: error: passing argument 1 of 'sparc_flush_page_to_ram' from incompatible pointer type Include generic includes files first to fix the problem.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
