These are the remaining ones on x86:

17 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/reiserfs_fs.h
12 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/soundcard.h
6 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/asm/setup.h
3 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/nubus.h
2 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/in6.h
1 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/mtd/jffs2-user.h
1 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/socket.h
1 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/linux/coda_psdev.h
1 /dev/shm/tip/usr/include/asm/prctl.h

They are all of the "extern's make no sense in userspace" type. What was the
verdict, are they worth touching, or should we turn off this warning in
'make headers_check'?
