linux-next: build failure after merge of the staging tree

Hi all,

After merging the staging tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/staging/r8188eu/core/rtw_br_ext.c:8:10: fatal error: ../include/net/ipx.h: No such file or directory
    8 | #include "../include/net/ipx.h"
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commit

  6c9b40844751 ("net: Remove net/ipx.h and uapi/linux/ipx.h header files")

from the net-next tree.

I have reverted that commit for today.

That's not fair to the networking developers, I'll work on a patch for
this driver to remove that later today...

thanks,

Should now be fixed up in my tree so that you do not need to drop that
networking patch anymore.

thanks,
