You've broken various things by doing this because some driver code
rightly or wrongly uses segment.h. That is fine because they shouldn't
do so. However asm/segment.h isn't supoosed to be removed on
architectures that use segments- like x86, and x86-64. There it is a
real arch private file and shouldn't be disappearing.
It shouldn't be leaking into drivers any more (eg mxser.c is an offender
there)
