+CC Michal, linux-arch as it potentially affects other arches !

I bisected the linux-next ARC build failure (!SMP only) to a subtle side effect of
a950a30220657d ("mm, vmalloc: properly track vmalloc users") which includes
asm/pgtable.h causing the final include chain (for ARC ioremap.c) to have
asm/mmu.h (using NR_CPUS) before linux/threads.h (defining it)

The quick fix is to include linux/threads.h and this is just a heads up other
arches might run into same - although xtensa and mips with similar mm_context_t
seem to build just fine !
