Hi Karolina,

As Matthew pointed out [1], many architectures put their definition of
virt_to_phys() in asm/io.h, e.g.

arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h:#define virt_to_phys virt_to_phys
arch/sh/include/asm/io.h:#define virt_to_phys(address) ((unsigned long)(address))
arch/x86/include/asm/io.h:#define virt_to_phys virt_to_phys

which means memblock needs this header for declaration of virt_to_phys().

Although it is included indirectly, let's keep it for now.
