file->st is only defined for poll/select events, if it is not specified
at compile time, functions in linux/kevent.h becomes void:

#ifdef CONFIG_KEVENT_POLL
static inline void kevent_init_file(struct file *file)
{
	kevent_storage_init(file, &file->st);
}

static inline void kevent_cleanup_file(struct file *file)
{
	kevent_storage_fini(&file->st);
}
#else
static inline void kevent_init_file(struct file *file) {}
static inline void kevent_cleanup_file(struct file *file) {}
#endif

What error messages do you see and what are kevent related config
changes?
