It looks like the problem is that proc_root_fs is not defined when
CONFIG_PROC_FS is undefined.  Even though proc_mkdir() is defined as an
inline function, the compile still fails.

	proc_root_ext4 = proc_mkdir(EXT4_ROOT, proc_root_fs);

Maybe the best thing would be to put some dummy define in proc_fs.h
like:

#define proc_root_fs NULL
