For sure it has to be addresses carefully, but there are already a lot of stuff like that around pgtables.h
For instance, pte_offset_kernel() has a generic definition in linux/pgtables.h based on whether it is already defined or not.
Taking into account that FIRST_USER_ADDRESS is today in the architectures's asm/pgtables.h, I think putting the fallback definition in linux/pgtable.h would do the trick.
