Subject: [PATCH -next] random: needs linux/device.h for struct device
Date: Mon, 04 Nov 2013 08:06:16 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5277C5F8.3080609@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131104175916.763e3c0cf001b9f948f2baa7@canb.auug.org.au>

on x86_64:

drivers/char/random.c: In function 'add_device_attach_randomness':
drivers/char/random.c:837:41: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type


need to #include <linux/device.h> for struct device, I think.
Yes, that works.

Fix struct device build failure on x86_64 by including <linux/device.h>:

drivers/char/random.c: In function 'add_device_attach_randomness':
drivers/char/random.c:837:41: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
