Thanks, the inline patch should fix it.
Adding Andrew to cc. Andrew, merging this is tricky but the basic intent is
to move get_kernel_pages from memory.c to swap.c which affects these patches
mm: add get_kernel_page[s] for pinning of kernel addresses for I/O
mm: add support for a filesystem to activate swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages
mm: swap: implement generic handler for swap_activate
mm: add support for direct_IO to highmem pages
The build fix is needed for the first patch but the inlined version will
collide as the later patches affect the same code. I'm attaching an
alternative version that can be applied directly to the first patch.
This will cause a collision in "mm: add support for direct_IO
to highmem pages" but all that is needed is to rename the hunk affecting
memory.c to swap.c .

buildfix: mm: add get_kernel_page[s] for pinning of kernel addresses for I/O
get_kernel_pages was put in memory.c beside get_user_pages but this only
works for CONFIG_MMU. As there is nothing special to be done for
!CONFIG_MMU, this build fix moves the functions to mm/swap.c which is
the next best fit.
