FWIW, this is a compiler message.

The eror is seen with is alpha:allmodconfig. "make ARCH=alpha allmodconfig".
It does set CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HMM=y.

This patch has additional problems. For arm64:allmodconfig
and many others, when running "make ARCH=arm64 allmodconfig":

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DEVICE_PRIVATE
  Depends on [n]: ARCH_HAS_HMM_DEVICE [=n] && ZONE_DEVICE [=n]

  - DRM_NOUVEAU_SVM [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && ARCH_HAS_HMM [=y] && DRM_NOUVEAU [=m] && STAGING [=y]

This in turn results in:

arch64-linux-ld: mm/memory.o: in function `do_swap_page':
memory.c:(.text+0x798c): undefined reference to `device_private_entry_fault'

not only on arm64, but on other architectures as well.

All those problems are gone after reverting this patch.
