Yes, use IS_ENABLED, no need to have two indirections of #define's

Another option is to have

	if (pmd_move_must_withdraw(new,old)) {
	}

With in a generic header:

#ifndef pmd_move_must_withdraw
static inline bool pmd_move_must_withdraw(spinlock_t *new_ptl, ...)
{
	return new_ptl != old_ptl;
}
#endif

And in powerpc:

static inline bool pmd_move_must_withdraw(spinlock_t *new_ptl, ...)
{
	return true;
}
#define pmd_move_must_withdraw pmd_move_must_withdraw

Cheers,
Ben.
