kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt cleaning it up by splitting out container_of() and
typeof_member() macros.

For time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

Note, there are _a lot_ of headers and modules that include kernel.h solely
for one of these macros and this allows to unburden compiler for the twisted
inclusion paths and to make new code cleaner in the future.

Is the patch missing the removal from the other place?

Cheers,
Miguel

Possibly, but I leave it for now for builders to place with the series and
people having chance to comment.

Thanks for review!

Maybe Andrew can fix this when applying?

IMO: this new file is missing 2 #include directives.

And trivially: I'd prefer GPL-2.0-only

This is not a self-contained header as it requires
#include <linux/build_bug.h>
which should be at the top of this file.

And this requires

#include <linux/err.h>

Thanks, Joe, I'll address this in v5.

And I bet the biggest problem is the time spent by the compiler
searching down the -I path for headers.

If you count system calls during a build I suspect that
failed opens of .h files dominate.

To see how much this really costs try running a build with
a (traditional) NFS mounted source tree - where every directory
name in a filename requires an NFS file handle lookup.
