In a freshly extracted 2.6.23 tarball, I applied the 4 uml-*.patch files from 
stable-queue/review-2.6.23-2 in sequence (all applied cleanly), and then did 
the following:

cat > mini.conf << EOF &&
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y
CONFIG_HOSTFS=y
CONFIG_LBD=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y
CONFIG_STDERR_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=y
CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y
EOF
make ARCH=um allnoconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=mini.conf 

Then I did:

make -j 2 ARCH=um

And it still breaks:

  CC      arch/um/kernel/smp.o
In file included from include/asm/arch/tlb.h:11,
                 from include/asm/tlb.h:4,
                 from arch/um/kernel/smp.c:8:

include/asm-generic/tlb.h:76: error: implicit declaration of

include/asm-generic/tlb.h:105: error: implicit declaration of 
function ‘page_cache_release’
make[1]: *** [arch/um/kernel/smp.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/um/kernel] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

My .config is attached.
