Correct - but we can rewrite it like this:

diff --git a/include/linux/acct.h b/include/linux/acct.h
index 882dc72..bcc6d2f 100644
--- a/include/linux/acct.h
+++ b/include/linux/acct.h
@@ -59,8 +59,12 @@ struct acct
 	comp_t		ac_majflt;		/* Major Pagefaults */
 	comp_t		ac_swaps;		/* Number of Swaps */
 /* m68k had no padding here. */
-#if !defined(CONFIG_M68K) || !defined(__KERNEL__)
+#ifndef __KERNEL__
 	__u16		ac_ahz;			/* AHZ */
+#else
+  #ifndef CONFIG_M68K
+	__u16		ac_ahz;			/* AHZ */
+  #endif
 #endif
 	__u32		ac_exitcode;		/* Exitcode */
 	char		ac_comm[ACCT_COMM + 1];	/* Command Name */

This is at least for me also easier to parse.
So we remove a (bogus) warning and make the code easier to read.
