This makes sense. The enforcing here is not just for correctness but because you
want to use VMEMMAP_RESERVE_NR supposedly?

I would suggest having two patches one for the refactor and another one for the
override, but I don't feel particularly strongly about it.

Why is this include needed?

It would be more readable (i.e. less identation) if you just reverse this:

	unsigned long nr_vmemmap_pages;

	if (!pgmap || !is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page))
		return false;

	nr_vmemmap_pages = ((pgmap_vmemmap_nr(pgmap) *
			     sizeof(struct page)) >> PAGE_SHIFT);

	/*
	 * For vmemmap optimization with DAX we need minimum 2 vmemmap
	 * pages. See layout diagram in Documentation/mm/vmemmap_dedup.rst
	 */
	return (nr_vmemmap_pages > VMEMMAP_RESERVE_NR) && !altmap;

sparse-vmemmap code is trivial to change to use dedup a single vmemmap page
(e.g. to align with hugetlb), hopefully the architecture override to do. this is
to say whether VMEMMAP_RESERVE_NR should have similar to above?
