Thanks a lot for doing this! I had initially converted a bunch of
architectures to use the asm-generic files this way, but gave up
after some of them turned out to be too much work to get in.

Note that while you are addressing all the obvious candidates that
have only a single #include statement in them, there is room to take
this further because a lot of the other header files in architectures
are still identical to their asm-generic counterparts (aside from
whitespace and comments). I would recommend to arch maintainers that
have not already done so to go through all the headers and replace
the identical ones with generated headers that include the asm-generic
version.
