Thanks, I see the move here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git/commit/?h=headers.unaligned&id=3169da8e80dfca2bcbfb6e998e2f36bcdcd5895a
I'm not sure how the logistics of this is going to work but I assume
it's ok to merge with <asm/unaligned.h> for now and let the later
merge from viro fix this? (+Viro as FYI)

I'll send up Patch 3 of this series with the fixes discussed (use
asm/unaligned.h and reorder includes)
