Umm.  asm-offsets.h is only supposed to be included by assembly files.
Assembly files would not be able to include linux/dma-direction.h
So this shouldn't be a problem.

The same could be true of things like CLOCK_REALTIME etc.

Just don't do it.  Keep asm-offsets.h as something that gets included
by assembly and only assembly.

If you need to know the offset of some member, use offsetof(), don't
re-use asm-offsets.h.
