Subject: [PATCH -next] net/ipv4/datagram.c: remove superfluous header files from datagram.c

datagram.c hasn't use any macro or function declared in linux/ip.h,
and linux/module.h.
Thus, these files can be removed from datagram.c safely without
affecting the compilation of the net/ipv4 module

If we remove this one we need to add an include for linux/export.h

This indeed looks unnecessary.
