My main worry with this patch is a potential #include mess. I can see
that you already had to include asm/compat.h explicitly in
hw_breakpoint.c even though linux/compat.h was already included. In
subsequent files (asm/elf.h, asm/memory.h) you check is_compat_task()
without explicitly including asm/compat.h and hope that it won't break.

A solution would be to add these functions in a separate header file
that gets included where needed (also by asm/compat.h).
