Urgrrh, that'll be my fault: sorry, I've caused nothing but trouble
with my little remove-a-few-unneeded #includes from exec.c.
I honestly believed I'd tested !CONFIG_SWAP.

There's actually a comment further down saying that sparc cannot
include pagemap.h in swap.h, so I think your patch will probably
cause some other build trouble on sparc.

I'd be more inclined to include pagemap.h back in exec.c, as it
was before I interfered, or see if there's another "obviously safe"
(haha) solution.

Please give me a little while to wander through the maze, thanks.
