It's really not that hard to do -- symlink asm-generic to a target
called "asm" inside an otherwise empty directory, and add that
otherwise empty directory to the -I paths just after arch/include.
Since it's searched second, it's only used if the first fails. Maybe
I'm missing something though, as this seems a bit too obvious. Perhaps
a project for another day.
