I'm seeing a build failure in linux-next:

/es/linux/linux-next/include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:476:4: error: implicit declaration of function 'pmd_clear_bad' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]


This patch added some functions to asm-generic/pgtable.h which should
have been placed in the CONFIG_MMU conditional block:

      mm: thp: fix pmd_bad() triggering in code paths holding mmap_sem read mode


The following patch fixes the build problem for me:
