You get it if you have CONFIG_NET enabled, but CONFIG_INET off. We
seem to have a few defconfigs on arm that has that setting, likely
because they lack native network interfaces but need local unix
sockets. Or whatever. But that's how you hit it.

Steps to reproduce, even with ARCH=sparc:

make allnoconfig
edit .config, set CONFIG_NET=y
yes "" | make oldconfig
make
