Subject: mm: memfd_luo: add CONFIG_SHMEM dependency
Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2025 11:01:58 +0100
The new memfd code fails to link without SHMEM:
aarch64-linux-ld: mm/memfd_luo.o: in function `memfd_luo_retrieve_folios':
memfd_luo.c:(.text.memfd_luo_retrieve_folios+0xdc): undefined reference to `shmem_add_to_page_cache'
memfd_luo.c:(.text.memfd_luo_retrieve_folios+0x11c): undefined reference to `shmem_inode_acct_blocks'
memfd_luo.c:(.text.memfd_luo_retrieve_folios+0x134): undefined reference to `shmem_recalc_inode'
Add a Kconfig dependency to disallow that configuration.
