Update:  <asm/elf.h> isn't there either, but <sys/user.h> includes
user_regs_struct, so that's sufficient for this problem.

The next problem is lack of <asm/page.h>.  Most files failing to build
with it can simply have it removed.  I've temporarily replaced PAGE_SIZE
with sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) for now, and we'll see how that works.
