I've just posted a new version of my patchset that reverses the order of the
patches to put the arch-specific bits first.  Each arch-specific bit is a
stand-alone reduction of that asm/system.h to just a bunch of #includes which
is deleted by the final patch (except where asm-generic/system.h is involved).

As these are independent, it would, for example, be possible to just take the
s390 one into your tree and merge it with your changes.
