Hi Barry,


I found this patch makes some of my build test that not setting CONFIG_MMU
fails with multiple errors including below:

    In file included from .../mm/nommu.c:43:
    .../mm/internal.h: In function '__pte_batch_clear_ignored':
    .../mm/internal.h:98:23: error: implicit declaration of function 'pte_mkclean'; did you mean 'page_mkclean'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
       98 |                 pte = pte_mkclean(pte);
          |                       ^~~~~~~~~~~
          |                       page_mkclean

Enabling CONFIG_MMU made the build success.  I haven't had a time to look into
the code yet.  May I ask your opinion?


Thanks,
SJ
