Since you defined HAVE_MEMBLOCK_PFN_VALID here, do we need to define it
in the arch code as well? If kept it in the mm/Kconfig only, you could
just select it in the arch HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID entry:

diff --git a/arch/arm64/Kconfig b/arch/arm64/Kconfig
index d0a53cc6293a..cd230c77e122 100644
--- a/arch/arm64/Kconfig
+++ b/arch/arm64/Kconfig
@@ -787,6 +787,7 @@ config ARCH_FLATMEM_ENABLE
 
 config HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
 	def_bool ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL || !SPARSEMEM
+	select HAVE_MEMBLOCK_PFN_VALID
 
 config HW_PERF_EVENTS
 	def_bool y

(similarly for arch/arm)
