After doing some Kconfig hacks like (ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB = n) on an
X86 system I got (HUGETLB_PAGE = n and HMM = y) config. But was unable to
hit the build error. Helper is_vm_hugetlb_page() seems to always return
false when HUGETLB_PAGE = n. Would not the compiler remove the entire code
block including the declaration for 'h' ?

#ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE
#include <linux/mm.h>
static inline bool is_vm_hugetlb_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
        return !!(vma->vm_flags & VM_HUGETLB);
}
#else
static inline bool is_vm_hugetlb_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
        return false;
}
#endif
