Arnd,

Yeah, I thought of picking that one but I decided not to mess around with
where things are in v4.9, both in terms of data declaration and filenames,
tried to keep as they look like in v4.9.

Maybe amending the following hunk would be an easier fix
given that the tlbflush_unmap_batch is only used within
the CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH.

That (cross)compiles fine with multi_v7_defconfig.
