When kernel.h is used in the headers it adds a lot into dependency hell,
especially when there are circular dependencies are involved.
Replace kernel.h inclusion with the list of what is really being used.

Subject and description do not cover cleanup of includes besides the
kernel.h. But that does not seem like a big issue, so:

Not sure what it's supposed from me to do. The forward declarations are
the tighten part of the cleanup (*) and it's exactly what is happening here,
i.e. replacing kernel.h "with the list of what is really being used".
*) Either you need a header, or you need a forward declaration, or rely on
the compiler not to be so strict. I prefer the second option out of three.

Ah, seems indeed the skbuf and netdevice ones can be split. Do you want me to
resend as series of two?
(Sorry I have sent many similar changes and haven't remembered by heart where
I did what exactly, but here it looks natural to cleanup that stuff at the
same time, so the question is if it should be a separate change or not)

No. The single patch cleanup looks pretty good.
It might be worth pointing out in the commit message that the other
included headers were removed as they indirectly include the kernel.h
header. This will be helpful for future readers. But I don’t think
such a comment is worth a patch update. So I am Ok if this patch will
be applied as is.

The patch looks good. Thank you for this hard cleanup work!
