Yes, makes sense. Can you send that as a proper patch and I'll apply it?

The ordering of #includes is as follows:

  1. Our own headers. This helps in ensuring there's no missing
     #includes in the headers themselves.

  2. Library headers and glibc headers

  3. Linux kernel headers.

Code that doesn't follow that is a bug waiting to happen.
