Rtems 4.6.99.3 - cdefs.h

[Steven Johnson]

Further to the following email,

it turns out that the only header file installed by rtems that refers to
cdefs.h is rtems_bsdnet_internal.h

It #include's both 'rtems/cdefs.h' and 'sys/cdefs.h'

Why?

I cant see any definitions in rtems/cdefs.h that arent made in
sys/cdefs.h.  Shouldn't the #include to 'rtems/cdefs.h' be changed to
'sys/cdefs.h' and then the second (and lower) #include of 'sys/cdefs.h'
be removed?

If this is done, i don't find any other references to 'rtems/cdefs.h',
so couldn't it be safely removed?

Attached is a patch which does just this.
