Hm. I can't really seem to find many:

./Documentation/lguest/lguest.c:#include "asm-x86/bootparam.h"
./arch/um/sys-x86_64/syscall_table.c:#include <asm-x86/unistd_64.h>
./arch/um/sys-x86_64/syscall_table.c:#include <asm-x86/unistd_64.h>
./arch/ia64/ia32/audit.c:#include <asm-x86/unistd_32.h>

..and I don't even know how to fix them. It seems that we might want
to use filesystem links here instead? (Git should be able to handle
that.)

E.g. so that arch/ia64/include/asm/unistd_32.h ->
arch/x86/include/asm/unistd_32.h. Then arch/ia64/ia32/audit.c can
#include <asm/unistd_32.h>.
