It would be nice if we used the number of files rebuilt because of a header file change as another metric that the kernel is evaluated with from release to release (or even on a commit by commit basis). Food for thought.
Maybe Andy has some thoughts, he has been working on dropping unnecessary includes of kernel.h, it seems. It'd be cool to plug something that'd warn us about significant increases in dependencies into the patchwork build bot. I have one more small series which un-includes uapi/bpf.h from netdevice.h at which point I hope we'll be largely in the clear from build bot performance perspective.
