[PATCH v2 1/1] headers: fix circular dependency between linux/sched.h and linux/wait.h

From: David Cohen
Date: Mon Feb 21 2011 - 09:34:05 EST


Currently sched.h and wait.h have circular dependency between both.
wait.h defines macros wake_up*() which use macros TASK_* defined by
sched.h. But as sched.h indirectly includes wait.h, such wait.h header
file can't include sched.h too. The side effect is when some file
includes wait.h and tries to use its wake_up*() macros, it's necessary
to include sched.h also.
This patch moves all TASK_* macros from linux/sched.h to a new header
file linux/task_state.h. This way, both sched.h and wait.h can include
task_state.h and fix the circular dependency. No need to include sched.h
anymore when wake_up*() macros are used.
