Still doesn't work.

CC mm/memory.o
In file included from ./arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h:26:0,

./arch/riscv/include/asm/tlb.h: In function âtlb_flushâ:
./arch/riscv/include/asm/tlb.h:21:18: error:
dereferencing pointer to incomplete type âstruct mmu_gatherâ flush_tlb_mm(tlb->mm);

Problem is that struct mmu_gather is dereferenced in tlb_flush().
