Hi Andrew,

As I checked the build failure reported by kernel test robot, the tested code head
20af1ca418d2 doesn't include the above build fix, it only has the original patch
with the build issue on NOMMU platform. But the above "build fix" is exactly
fixing the issue.

So the tested code by robot doesn't contain the above fix, while the removed patch
includes the fix. So would you like to take the dropped one with the fix back?
Sorry for all the trouble to you.

Thanks
Barry
