Thanks Peter, I'll squish this fix into the commit that introduces
the misplacement. It was searching out the last "#include <linux/xyz.h>
and appending after that. Occasionally where someone has a large
block of them in an #ifdef CONFIG_BLAH did it get misplaced. And then
it was only visible if the arch didn't set CONFIG_BLAH, as what has
happened here on avr32 it seems.
Paul.
