Since 327792c sh4 builds fails with:

../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/kernel-features.h:49:0: error: "__ASSUME_ST_INO_64_BIT" redefined [-Werror]
 #define __ASSUME_ST_INO_64_BIT  1
 ^
In file included from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sysdep.h:19:0,
                 from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/sysdep.h:24,
                 from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/sh4/sysdep.h:4,
                 from <stdin>:1:
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/kernel-features.h:47:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
 #define __ASSUME_ST_INO_64_BIT 0

It is because sh4 kernel-features.sh is included multiple times
without guards and this patch fixes by adding them. Tested on a
sh4-linux-gnu build.

Also with this issues, is there are strong reason to *not* have include guards
on kernel-features.h?  With current approach, a architecture can't include
Linux default kernel-features.h and redefine it to a different value, only
undefine it (unless it explicit do not include default kernel-features.h,
and I think that's is not the idea).

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/kernel-features.h: Add include
	guards.

OK.  I think it's appropriate for all these headers to have include 
guards.

The #ifndef, #undef etc. could be avoided (moving this header closer to 
glibc's macro-name-typo-proof norms in this regard) if the header were 
split up into smaller pieces for individual macros or groups of related 
macros whenever a macro's definition needs to vary between architectures.  
Thus, you'd have e.g. kernel-features-st-ino.h defining 
__ASSUME_ST_INO_64_BIT to either 0 or 1, the default version of that 
header would define to 0 and the architectures overriding it would define 
to 1 (and wouldn't need #include_next).  kernel-features.h could end up as 
an architecture-independent header that just #includes the smaller 
architecture-specific headers.  (This is not a full design, especially for 
the more complicated cases such as socket syscalls.)

Ok, I will push this patch.

This could be a feasible approach, although it would require some extensive
refactoring.  But I think we current approach, where architecture 
kernel-feature is used from sysdep and it is responsible to include default
linux one and undef and redefine value, plus guards should be also feasible
for macro-name-typo-proof as well.
