No this patch is self contained and doesn't depend on the patch #1.
KHDR_INCLUDES was included several releases back in kselftest's Makefile
and in kselftests of futex. Correct headers are being included already. In
this patch, I'm removing just the un-needed dead code. Other patches were
already picked up by other maintainers.
