But you can add a forward declaration?

BTW, it seems the following drivers rely on <asm/fixmap.h>, which is
not available on all architectures:
    drivers/firewire/init_ohci1394_dma.c:#include <asm/fixmap.h>
    drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c:#include <asm/fixmap.h>
    drivers/usb/early/ehci-dbgp.c:#include <asm/fixmap.h>

Missing parentheses:

    __set_fixmap((idx), (phys), (flags));

"idx" and "phys" are evaluated multiple times, which can lead to subtle bugs.
