x86_64 allnoconfig:

In file included from mm/rmap.c:47:
include/linux/mm.h: In function 'page_referenced':
include/linux/mm.h:448: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_448' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG failed
make[1]: *** [mm/rmap.o] Error 1
make: *** [mm/rmap.o] Error 2

because

#else /* CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE */
#define HPAGE_PMD_SHIFT ({ BUILD_BUG(); 0; })


btw, total_mapcount() is far too large to be inlined and
page_mapcount() is getting pretty bad too.
