There is already quite a mess where the function is defined. We have it
in mmap.c, init.c, mem.c and s390 defines it in page.h. Is there any
good reason to add yet another place and pull in additional header files
dependencies?
Why not follow x86 here? Or even better git rid of the code duplication
and provide generic implementation which different arches can reuse and
extend? arm{64}, unicore32 seem to be identical. Powepc and x86 have an
additional test to the core one used by the above arches. Only tile
seems to be be doing something completely different.
