Agreed.

Ordering requirement, it will meet compile error for "return -ENODEV;"
in the head file which I introduced, I know I can include the right
head file in asm/cpu_ops.h, but I think move the asm/xx.h after the
include of linux/xx.h would be fine.

Agreed. But I'm just wondering if the Parking protocol is modified and
then support ARMv8, how to describe it in the comments?

Pretty fine to me :)
