However, since swab.h does not include stddef.h, if the header soup does not indirectly include it, the definition of __always_inline is missing, resulting in a compilation failure, which was observed compiling the perf tool using exported headers containing this commit: In file included from /usr/include/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h:12:0, from /usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:14, from tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h:20, from perf.h:8, from builtin-bench.c:18: /usr/include/linux/swab.h:160:8: error: unknown type name ‘__always_inline’ static __always_inline __u16 __swab16p(const __u16 *p) Fix this by replacing the inclusion of linux/compiler.h with linux/stddef.h to ensure that we pick up that definition if required, without relying on it's indirect inclusion. compiler.h is then included indirectly, via stddef.h.
