Subject[PATCH 49/98] Break dependency loop between linux/if.h and linux/hdlc/ioctl.h
Date
This isn't pretty but does the job. I assume including plain linux/hdlc/ioctl.h
without linux/if.h is much more rare than the other way round, and that
these header file names are part of API, and that creating a new header file
just for IFNAMSIZ isn't a good idea either.

Fixes userspace compiler error:

error: ‘IFNAMSIZ’ undeclared here (not in a function)
