The only legit reason I could think of for net/genetlink.h and linux/genetlink.h to be separate would be if one was included by other headers and we wanted to keep it lightweight. That is not the case, net/openvswitch/meter.h includes linux/genetlink.h but for no apparent reason (for struct genl_family perhaps? it's not necessary, types of externs do not need to be known).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
