We also use VM_BUG_ON(), defined in <linux/mmdebug.h>, which includes
<linux/bug.h>.

... so I think we still have some fragility here, albeit no worse than before.

We also miss includes for:

* <linux/percpu-defs.h> (raw_cpu_ptr)
* <linux/preempt.h> (preempt_disable, preempt_enable)
* <linux/compiler.h> (unreachable)

I'm not sure if those are made worse by this change.

Mark.
