SubjectMaking kernel headers compile with C++ & libc5
Someone posted last week that linux/socket.h fails to compile under
c++, because of the use of implicit casts in inline functions that
return NULL. This is a problem because it means that people using
libc5 (which uses the kernel headers) can't compile some c++
programs.

Further to the patch to include/linux/socket.h I've just posted, I've
just done a quick search through the kernel header files. The same
simple problem may affect at least the following headers:

ghash.h
pci.h
proc_fs.h
skbuff.h
sunrpc/stats.h

Are these headers included when compiling libc5 programs with c++? If
so, I'll make a simple patch to try to fix the problem.
