The firewire-cdev.h file is meant to be a self-contained userspace header file 
and shouldn't include other kernel header files.  All duplicated values are 
standardized ieee1394 values and won't ever change.  I should put a #ifndef 
__FW_COMMON_DEFINES protection around the duplicate values, I guess, but I'm 
just wondering why I never saw a "symbol redefined" warning...
