It's only a problem if the file is included before any other header declares
'struct device'. It may well be that this currently never happens, but it's
better to be safe and have a header that can be included in any order:
relying on a specific inclusion order can easily break with 'make randconfig'
turning off specific features that you did not know you relied on.
