Ack, we need this patch somewhere but we should probably fix the patch
that does the move, otherwise we'll have a build-broken kernel still.

I don't think that's the right way around. This would result in a
build-broken commit point as well.

Looking at current -next, I see that "set_memory: allow querying whether
set_direct_map_*() is actually enabled" is after "arm64, kfence: enable
KFENCE for ARM64".

I think the patch that introduces set_memory.h for arm64 simply needs to
squash in this patch (assuming the order is retained as-is in -mm).

Thanks,
