Re: linux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for the report.
I will submit a patch for the issue soon.
Since I used the net-next.git, the build failure didn't happen.
This is because that the linux/device.h of the net-next.git has "#include <linux/module.h>".
But, I was wrong to remove "#include <linux/module.h>" in the sh_eth.{c,h}.

Thanks,
Yoshihiro Shimoda
