Hi Andy,
I see the macro is used in lib/strnlen_user.c and in lib/usercopy.c.
In case of strnlen_user, the wordpart.h is included via linux/kernel.h,
which is OK to me. But In case of usercopy.c, I can't find how the
header is included.
I'm sure there is some inclusion path, but it's always better to have
the dependencies listed explicitly.
Can you please send a 2nd version with the lib/usercopy.c including
wordpart.h?
Thanks,
Yury
