Adding Thomas.  Thomas I've been looking into the following test failure:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210304083825.GB17830@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/

See below.

I think I see the issue.  I think this is an invalid configuration.

00:26:43 > grep DEBUG_KMAP config-5.11.0-rc7-00002-g61b205f57991

# CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is not set


DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL causes guard pages to be added to the kmap_ctrl array.  But
DEBUG_HIGHMEM is used in __kmap_local_sched_out() to check the guard pages.

DEBUG_HIGHMEM is supposed to select DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL...  but apparently that
did not happen when this configuration was made.

I still have not hit this condition in my testing.  Could you ensure that
DEBUG_HIGMEM is set and rerun the test to see if I am correct?

Thomas wouldn't the following enable checks make more sense?  Or perhaps be
more consistent with the processing of kmap_ctrl?
