I'm still of the opinion that we should add

-imacros include/linux/config.h

to the gcc command line and stop bothering with trying to get
linux/config.h included into the right files and not in others.
(which then means we can eliminate linux/config.h from all files.)

for months, and it can cause bugs which are rather non-obvious.
