OK, so some recap
those which include generic mman-common.h directly
arch/sparc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman-common.h>
arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman-common.h>
arch/tile/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman-common.h>

then we have
arch/metag/include/asm/mman.h
which includes uapi/asm/mman.h and that is a generic one
arch/metag/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild:generic-y += mman.h

others include generic mman.h
arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/frv/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/ia64/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/m32r/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/mn10300/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/score/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>
arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#include <asm-generic/mman.h>

which includes mman-common.h as well

and then we are left with
arch/alpha/include/uapi/asm/mman.h
arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/mman.h
arch/parisc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h
arch/xtensa/include/uapi/asm/mman.h

which do not include anything. So the patch can be indeed simplified.
I will fold the following into the patch. I hope nothing got left behind
but my defconfig compile test on all arches which i have a cross
compiler for succeeded.

commit 52a9272f419f428cb079d340f64113325516ef9b

    - define MAP_FIXED_SAFE in asm-generic/mman-common.h as per Michael
      Ellerman because all architecture which use this header can share
      the same value. This will leave us with only 4 arches which need
      special handling.
