With this series as-is, but *without* the #ifdef CONFIG_USERFAULTFD
here, we introduce a bunch of build warnings like this:



In file included from ./include/linux/migrate.h:8:0,
                 from kernel/sched/sched.h:53,
                 from kernel/sched/isolation.c:10:
./include/linux/hugetlb.h:143:12: warning: 'enum mcopy_atomic_mode'
declared inside parameter list
     struct page **pagep);
            ^
./include/linux/hugetlb.h:143:12: warning: its scope is only this
definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

And similarly we get an error about the "mode" parameter having an
incomplete type in hugetlb.c.



This is because enum mcopy_atomic_mode is defined in userfaultfd_k.h,
and that entire header is wrapped in a #ifdef CONFIG_USERFAULTFD. So
we either need to define enum mcopy_atomic_mode unconditionally, or we
need to #ifdef CONFIG_USERFAULTFD the references to it also.

- I opted not to move it outside the #ifdef CONFIG_USERFAULTFD in
userfaultfd_k.h (defining it unconditionally), because that seemed
messy to me.
- I opted not to define it unconditionally in hugetlb.h, because we'd
have to move it to userfaultfd_k.h anyway when shmem or other users
are introduced. I'm planning to send a series to add this a few days
or so after this series is merged, so it seems churn-y to move it
then.
- It seemed optimal to not compile hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte anyway
(even ignoring adding the continue ioctl), since as you point out
userfaultfd is the only caller.

Hopefully this clarifies this and the next two comments. Let me know
if you still feel strongly, I don't hate any of the alternatives, just
wanted to clarify that I had considered them and thought this approach
was best.

Agreed, I like that better as well. :)

Seems reasonable to me, I'll make this change in v4.
