struct machdep_calls in asm/machdep.h is full of function pointers and I'm working on converting that to static_calls (https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/list/?series=260878&state=*) So yes, adding static_call.h in asm/machdep.h is intentional and the issue was detected by CI build test (http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/14628100/) I submitted this change to you because for me it make sense to not re-use globably defined struct names in local C files, and anybody may encounter the problem as soon as linux/node.h gets included directly or indirectly. But if you prefer I guess the fix may be merged through powerpc tree as part of this series.
