Re-running my hacky tests for this series knocks for-next/core over:

The below patch fixes it: I'll post it properly shortly...

asm-generic/pgtable-nop?d.h: define folded with a value for use in C

It turns out "if (__is_defined(__PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED))" isn't equivalent
to "#ifdef __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED". (who knew!)

kconfig.h's __is_defined() expects a define of the form
"#define CONFIG_BOOGER 1". But these nop?d headers just have
"#define __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED".

This means ____is_defined()'s triplet passed to __take_second_arg() is
'empty-string 1 0' in both cases, meaning these symbols can't be used
from C. (they are always false).

asm-generic gets away with this as its using the pre-processor's
defined() macro on this, not the C __is_defined().

Add the expected '1'.

(and, while digging through this, I spotted:
| #define set_pmd_at(mm, addr, pmdp, pmd)
| set_pte_at(mm, addr, (pte_t *)pmdp, pmd_pte(pmd))
which may trip up too)


Thanks,

James
