doesn't quite work, b/c the top of asm-offsets_64.c has a bunch of
includes, such as:  <linux/sched.h>, which in turn include unistd.h at
a point in time where asm/asm-offests.h does not exist.

However, a much simpler version of the previous patch I posted does do
the trick, below. I hope this version is more palatable?
