[PATCH] KBUILD: Drop tty.h and isicom.h from include/linux/Kbuild.

[PATCH] KBUILD: Drop tty.h and isicom.h from include/linux/Kbuild.

[Robert P. J. Day]

Drop the entries for tty.h and isicom.h from the include/linux/Kbuild
file, since "make headers_install" just generates empty files for
them.

i've submitted a patch to do this at least twice before.  is there
some reason those empty generated header are being so tenacious?

Unsure for tty.h -- won't this break too much of apps' builds?

good question, i'm not sure.  should i submit those two as separate
patches or does your partial ACK already handle isicom.h?
