Arnd has applied the patch removing linux/vmalloc.h from
asm-generic/io.h to his testing tree to give it a good amount of testing
before it comes anywhere near linux-next.  I'd say it's fine if you push
this through your queue as long as it hits Linus' tree before my
patch (which Arnd will submit, I suppose?).

Arnd, what would you prefer?
