Still doesn't work.

CC      mm/memory.o
In file included from ./arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h:26:0,
                 from ./include/linux/memremap.h:7,
		 from ./include/linux/mm.h:27,
		 from arch/riscv/mm/fault.c:23:
./arch/riscv/include/asm/tlb.h: In function ‘tlb_flush’:
./arch/riscv/include/asm/tlb.h:21:18: error:
	dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct mmu_gather’ flush_tlb_mm(tlb->mm);

Problem is that struct mmu_gather is dereferenced in tlb_flush().
