BTW,
$ grep -n uaccess.h `find -name asm-prototypes.h`
./arch/alpha/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:7:#include <linux/uaccess.h>
./arch/arm64/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:18:#include <asm/uaccess.h>
./arch/ia64/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:12:#include <linux/uaccess.h>
./arch/mips/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:6:#include <linux/uaccess.h>
./arch/powerpc/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:14:#include <linux/uaccess.h>
./arch/sparc/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:9:#include <linux/uaccess.h>
./arch/x86/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:3:#include <linux/uaccess.h>

Spot the irregularity...

While we are at it,
$ git grep -n -w '#.*include.*asm/uaccess.h'
arch/arm64/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:18:#include <asm/uaccess.h>
arch/nds32/math-emu/fpuemu.c:5:#include <asm/uaccess.h>
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_xive_native.c:15:#include <asm/uaccess.h>
arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/radix_pgtable.c:30:#include <asm/uaccess.h>
drivers/s390/net/ctcm_mpc.c:50:#include <linux/uaccess.h>       /* instead of <asm/uaccess.h> ok ? */
include/linux/uaccess.h:11:#include <asm/uaccess.h>

The last one is the only such include that should exist; drivers/s390 one
is obviously a false positive.  And IMO the right thing to do is to
replace the remaining arch/* instances with includes of linux/uaccess.h.

All of those are asking for trouble; any change moving e.g. a common
variant of some primitive into linux/uaccess.h might end up breaking
those.
