Sure. Without it, the build breaks on riscv because it includes this header
without first including <linux/compiler.h>, and this header relies on
OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() being to defined as it is used in static inline
functions.

Perhaps I should squash this hunk into "compiler.h: Split {READ,WRITE}_ONCE
definitions out into rwonce.h" instead, as that is where I remove the
include of <linux/compiler.h> from 'asm-generic/barrier.h'. I'll check
the bisection on riscv...
