I would expect this to come from one of the linux/ includes like
linux/mm.h. asm/ headers are implementation linux/ headers are api.

Once you drop that then the subject of this patch can just be "arc:
add a copy_user_page() implementation", and handled by the arc
maintainer (or I can take it with Vineet's ack).

Yes, this one should have a linux/ api header to front it, but that's
a cleanup for another day.
