Early feedback: m68k builds fail due to 'm68k: handle pgtable_page_ctor() fail',
which would also require upstream commit 390f44e2aa2ab ("mm: allow
pgtable_page_ctor() to fail"). However, that commit alone doesn't add any value;
it requires additional commits to make sense. I don't know what those are.
Copying Kirill for advice.
