[PATCH 03/18] arm64: asm-offsets: Remove potential circular dependency

So far, we've been lucky enough that none of the include files
that asm-offsets.c requires do include asm-offsets.h. This is
about to change, and would introduce a nasty circular dependency...

Let's now guard the inclusion of asm-offsets.h so that it never
gets pulled from asm-offsets.c.
