Sigh. I've apparently managed to screw up again. This should address the
nommu breakage reported by 0-day.

Subject: [PATCH] mm, vmalloc: fix vmalloc users tracking properly
1f5307b1e094 ("mm, vmalloc: properly track vmalloc users") has pulled
asm/pgtable.h include dependency to linux/vmalloc.h and that turned out
to be a bad idea for some architectures. E.g. m68k fails with
In file included from arch/m68k/include/asm/pgtable_mm.h:145:0,
from arch/m68k/include/asm/pgtable.h:4,
from include/linux/vmalloc.h:9,
from arch/m68k/kernel/module.c:9:
arch/m68k/include/asm/mcf_pgtable.h: In function 'nocache_page':
>> arch/m68k/include/asm/mcf_pgtable.h:339:43: error: 'init_mm' undeclared (first use in this function)
#define pgd_offset_k(address) pgd_offset(&init_mm, address)
as spotted by kernel build bot. nios2 fails for other reason
In file included from ./include/asm-generic/io.h:767:0,
from ./arch/nios2/include/asm/io.h:61,
from ./include/linux/io.h:25,
from ./arch/nios2/include/asm/pgtable.h:18,
from ./include/linux/mm.h:70,
from ./include/linux/pid_namespace.h:6,
from ./include/linux/ptrace.h:9,
from ./arch/nios2/include/uapi/asm/elf.h:23,
from ./arch/nios2/include/asm/elf.h:22,
from ./include/linux/elf.h:4,
from ./include/linux/module.h:15,
from init/main.c:16:
./include/linux/vmalloc.h: In function '__vmalloc_node_flags':
./include/linux/vmalloc.h:99:40: error: 'PAGE_KERNEL' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'GFP_KERNEL'?
which is due to the newly added #include <asm/pgtable.h>, which on nios2
includes <linux/io.h> and thus <asm/io.h> and <asm-generic/io.h> which
again includes <linux/vmalloc.h>.
Tweaking that around just turns out a bigger headache than
necessary. This patch reverts 1f5307b1e094 and reimplements the original
fix in a different way. __vmalloc_node_flags can stay static inline
which will cover vmalloc* functions. We only have one external user
(kvmalloc_node) and we can export __vmalloc_node_flags_caller and
provide the caller directly. This is much simpler and it doesn't really
need any games with header files.
Fixes: 1f5307b1e094 ("mm, vmalloc: properly track vmalloc users")
