Wait: You now have MAIR_ELx_SET defined at two locations. Surely that's
one too many.
Oops, told you I tried different things...

This is terribly ugly. Why is this included by the linker script? Does
it actually define __ASSEMBLY__?
vmlinux.lds.S includes memory.h for PAGE_SIZE. And yes, linker scripts
are
built with this rule:

      cmd_cpp_lds_S = $(CPP) $(cpp_flags) -P -U$(ARCH) \
	                     -D__ASSEMBLY__ -DLINKER_SCRIPT -o $@ $<

I tried a few things and wasn't completely happy with any of them. I
think in
the previous spin you suggested moving this constant to sysreg.h. That
works
too but sysreg.h seems to have only architecture constants, memory.h
about a
Linux-specific configuration, so I wanted to keep it here.
MAIR_ELx_SET isn't really Linux specific. Or rather, not more specific than
any of the other configurations we have. On the other hand, the S1 MT_*
stuff
is totally arbitrary, and does fit in memory.h, together with the rest of
the indexes for the memory types.

I came up with the following patch on top of this series that seems to
compile without issue.
That seems to have an implicit dependency of sysreg.h on memory.h, doesn't it?
I had it the other way round initially. I also tried including memory.h in
sysreg.h. That creates a circular dependency mmdebug.h -> bug.h -> ... ->
sysreg.h -> memory.h -> mmdebug.h. Pretty annoying. I could try to fix that,
or create a new header file... :(
