I agree with this statement. But IMO additional confusion is caused by the
fact that some arch's condition the declarations on CONFIG_HIGHMEM within
asm/highmem.h (arc, arm, nds32) while others depend on linux/highmem.h (and
elsewhere) to do so (csky, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sparc, x86, xtensa).
Why?
I think (perhaps naive) over time asm/highmem.h needs to be isolated to being
included in linux/highmem.h. But as you point out below that is not so easy.
I think that this series helps toward that goal.

And the follow up series removes kmap_* from asm/cachefile.h in parisc which
should be cleaner going forward.

This all seems the same now.

AFAICS asm/pgtable.h does not include asm/highmem.h here...

Looks like it...

I've built these and they seem fine.

Actually
arch/xtensa/mm/cache.c gets linux/highmem.h from linux/pagemap.h
arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c may have an issue?
linux/blkdev.h -> CONFIG_BLOCK -> linux/pagemap.h -> linux/highmem.h
But simdisk.c requires BLK_DEV_SIMDISK -> CONFIG_BLOCK...
<sigh>
So xtensa still seems good AFAICS.
In summary it looks like the use of kmap_atomic() in pte_offset_map() is a
potential issue in microblaze. I've fixed that in my local tree.
