Thanks for your patch!

I think you can do without this...

... if you would drop the !MMU-dependency here.

Perhaps replace this by

    config M68KCLASSIC
            bool "Classic M68K CPU family support"
            select HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
  +         select HAVE_PAGE_SIZE_4KB if !MMU

so it covers all 680x0 CPUs without MMU?

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
