As far as I can see (I do wear my glasses today...),
-Iarch/${ARCH_DIR}/include is present in the else part of $(if).

The reason for this change is the missing arch include from the source
directory in case it's separate from the build dir (yeah, the changelog
has room for improvements).

I ran into the same issue after building and installing a recent kernel
tree with O=. The split trees SUSE leaves behind do not suffer from
this, but they also still work after the change. Same for classic
unified trees.
