Does this look OK?

#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
static inline void *pipe_kmap(struct page *page)
{
	return kmap(page);
}

static inline void pipe_kunmap(struct page *page)
{
	kunmap(page);
}

static inline void *pipe_kmap_atomic(struct page *page, enum km_type type)
{
	return kmap_atomic(page, type);
}

static inline void pipe_kunmap_atomic(void *addr, enum km_type type)
{
	kunmap_atomic(addr, type);
}
#else	/* CONFIG_HIGHMEM */
static inline void *pipe_kmap(struct page *page)
{
	return (void *)page->private;
}

static inline void pipe_kunmap(struct page *page)
{
}

static inline void *pipe_kmap_atomic(struct page *page, enum km_type type)
{
	return (void *)page->private;
}

static inline void pipe_kunmap_atomic(struct page *page, enum km_type type)
{
}
#endif
