Earlier it was already like this, because of Catalin Marinas
fault (commit f884b1cf578e0) and your ignorance you converted :

#ifdef __KERNEL__
#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__

to :

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)

I am just trying to rectify your mistake that __KERNEL__ should not be
used with other defines to easily export headers to userspace. Whole
kernel header files are following this protocol. Sam, Arnd and me are
trying to convince you. Why you need an exception ?

Thanks,
