[PATCH 1/4] glibc specific inclusion of sysinfo.h in kernel.h

[David Heidelberger]

including sysinfo.h from kernel.h makes no sense whatsoever,
but removing it breaks glibc's userspace header,
which includes kernel.h instead of sysinfo.h from their sys/sysinfo.h.
this seems to be a historical mistake.
on musl, including any header that uses kernel.h directly or indirectly
plus sys/sysinfo.h will produce a compile error due to redefinition of
struct sysinfo.h.
so for now, only include it on glibc in order not to break their 
headers.
