This change broke building the mantis driver:

In file included from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/io.h:30:0,
                 from drivers/media/pci/mantis/mantis_i2c.c:21:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h: In function âset_pte_atâ:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:281:3: error: implicit declaration
of function âBUILD_BUG_ON_INVALIDâ
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   VM_WARN_ONCE(!pte_young(pte),
   ^

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski
