It was more for consistency reasons. In the kernel the address space
1 & 2 are called '__user' & '__iomem' and, in the few place where it is
needed, the default AS (0) is called '__kernel'.
The idea here was to be able to specify them all:
	-faddress-space-names=__kernel,__user,__iomem, ...
but '__kernel' would never be used (unless some debug code ask for it).

Anyway, this patch will be dropped with the next version.
