ok

Can I still do the following, in prmem.c ?

#ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PRMEM_HEADER
+#include <asm/prmem.h>
+#else
+
+struct wr_state {
+ struct mm_struct *prev;
+};
+
+#endif


It's still a conditional include, but it's in a C file, it shouldn't
cause any chance of loops.

The alternative is that each arch supporting prmem must have a
(probably) empty asm/prmem.h header.

I did some reasearch about telling the compiler to include a header only
if it exists, but it doesn't seem to be a gcc feature.
