SRCARCH is not derived from the host but from $(ARCH) (cp. top-level
Makefile), thus you must not use arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/* for building
host progs as this breaks cross-building (e.g. consider build Linux for
32bit m68k on a arm64 host).

No, it isn't.  asm/bitsperlong.h is probably similar (enough) for current
64-bit systems, but 32-bit platforms will have different versions.
Anyway, we must not use target arch/platform-specific header files for
host progs.  If we do, it will break.

You want to use arm64 specific header files for building your arm64 host
progs, as MacOS does not provide these (thus, it's a missing build
dependency).  As this is not common (yet), such a build hack should be limited
to MacOS/Darwin only to not accidentally break other platforms.  (Do you also
have MacOS/amd64 in mind?)

As written elsewhere, another approach could be to create and maintain a Linux
kernel dev kit for MacOS, that delivers (fetches, downloads, generates) all
missing header files.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
