You used select! With the usual consequences.

mm/pagewalk.c: In function `walk_pud_range':
mm/pagewalk.c:64: error: implicit declaration of function `pud_none_or_clear_bad'
mm/pagewalk.c: In function `walk_page_range':
mm/pagewalk.c:119: error: implicit declaration of function `pgd_addr_end'
mm/pagewalk.c:120: error: implicit declaration of function `pgd_none_or_clear_ba

That's SuperH allmodconfig. I expect all nommu builds are busted.

So what do we do? Make UNEVICTABLE_LRU depend on CONFIG_MMU? That
would be even worse than what we have now.
