You presumably only need to include it for the map drivers on those 
platforms which can actually support 64-bit operation. So that's not 
necessarily a problem.

Correct. Again, this is platform-specific and you need to provide it. Some 
people have to play tricks with transferring all 64 bits into a FP register 
and storing form there, etc. It's probably best to take the stuff in 
physmap.c as merely an example, and provide your own map driver.
