I noticed that this header include is not necessary so I posted [0] to
just drop it, and mentioned the build error too with your Reported-by.

I posted a revert [1] for this but for a different reason (since after
[0] I believe the issue in powerpc should be fixed), which is that the
patch led to linking errors on arches that don't define a screen_info.
