Hi Conor.

Thanks for this nice simplification, but I think you can make it even
better.

Since the header file did not need <asm-generic/processor.h> then it
should not need it now after deleting stuff.
The better fix is to add the missing include to arch/sparc/kernel/cpu.c,
where we have the user of it.

A header file should include what it needs, and no more.

I looked only at this patch, this comment may also be relevant for the
other patches.
