Aside of platform-specific headers having no business of getting
included directly in a generic arch file, this also breaks the build
of many platforms:

  CC      arch/mips/mm/dma-default.o
In file included from arch/mips/mm/dma-default.c:21:0:
./arch/mips/include/asm/bmips.h: In function âbmips_read_zscm_regâ:
./arch/mips/include/asm/bmips.h:97:160: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]
  cache_op(Index_Load_Tag_S, ZSCM_REG_BASE + offset);
                                                                                                                                                                ^
./arch/mips/include/asm/bmips.h: In function âbmips_write_zscm_regâ:
./arch/mips/include/asm/bmips.h:118:160: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]
  cache_op(Index_Store_Tag_S, ZSCM_REG_BASE + offset);

I think the broken platforms are all the 64 bit platforms.
