I guess I should have look at the .c file instead of concentrating on
the .h's because this works:

diff --git a/include/linux/skbuff.h b/include/linux/skbuff.h
index 7b996ed..3f5ee74 100644

But that seems odd (noone else does it). Perhaps I should instead move
that include to last in the file? i.e.:

diff --git a/kernel/signal.c b/kernel/signal.c
