This is clearly better, but there are still a couple of inaccuracies
that may end up biting us again later. Not sure whether it's worth
trying to fix it all at once or if we want to address them when that
happens:

These are still two headers outside of the vdso/ namespace. For arm64
we had concluded that this is never safe, and any vdso header should
only include other vdso headers so we never pull in anything that
e.g. depends on memory management headers that are in turn broken
for the compat vdso.
The array_size.h header is really small, so that one could
probably just be moved into the vdso/ namespace. The minmax.h
header is already rather complex, so it may be better to just
open-code the usage of MIN/MAX where needed?

Since these are now the same across all architectures, maybe we
can just have the PAGE_SIZE definitions a vdso header instead
and include that from asm/page.h.
Including uapi/linux/mman.h may still be problematic on
some architectures if they change it in a way that is
incompatible with compat vdso, but at least that can't
accidentally rely on CONFIG_64BIT or something else that
would be wrong there.
