include/linux/cdev.h defines cd_forget to take a struct inode *, but does not
pull in any definition or declaration for struct inode. This generates a
compiler warning if a source file pulls in cdev.h without first pulling in
fs.h. Add a forward declaration of struct inode to cdev.h, to eliminate the
compiler warning and preserve the ability to include headers in any arbitrary
order.
