Because sparc uses non-standard defines which I'm not familiar with.
kmap_prot = __pgprot(SRMMU_ET_PTE | SRMMU_PRIV | SRMMU_CACHE);
SRMMU_ET_PTE and friends are defined in
arch/sparc/include/asm/pgtsrmmu.h
Since I can't readily test sparc this was easier to put out than let 0-day
crank on the entire series checking if including that header in the common
header chain would be an issue.

Agreed. But it seems easier as a follow up (for me with 0-day). Perhaps
someone from sparc can weigh in on the specifics of those defines and why they
are different from the normal ones? Or even provide a follow on patch?
