This fails to build on arm64 with 64kb page size (found in linux-next):

/drivers/vdpa/ifcvf/ifcvf_main.c: In function 'ifcvf_vdpa_get_vq_align':
arch/arm64/include/asm/page-def.h:17:20: error: conversion from 'long
unsigned int' to 'u16' {aka 'short unsigned int'} changes value from

It's probably good enough to just not allow the driver to be built in that
configuration as it's fairly rare but unfortunately there is no simple Kconfig
symbol for it.

In a similar driver, we did

config VMXNET3
tristate "VMware VMXNET3 ethernet driver"
depends on PCI && INET
depends on !(PAGE_SIZE_64KB || ARM64_64K_PAGES || \
IA64_PAGE_SIZE_64KB || MICROBLAZE_64K_PAGES || \
PARISC_PAGE_SIZE_64KB || PPC_64K_PAGES)

I think we should probably make PAGE_SIZE_64KB a global symbol
in arch/Kconfig and have it selected by the other symbols so drivers
like yours can add a dependency for it.
