mmu-hash.h has got a hack that is explained below
#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__
#include <linux/mmdebug.h>
#endif
/*
* This is necessary to get the definition of PGTABLE_RANGE which we
* need for various slices related matters. Note that this isn't the
* complete pgtable.h but only a portion of it.
*/
#include <asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h>
This is the only place where we do that book3s/64/pgtable.h include this
way. Everybody should include asm/pgable.h which picks the righ version
based on different config option.
