Because it builds fine if you check out Russell's branch. This build
error only happens because of a treewide change in -mm that was applied
after the ARM merge:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20201106094434.GA3268933@ubuntu-m3-large-x86/

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20201106180929.GD2959494@ubuntu-m3-large-x86/

Stephen could apply that diff as a fixup for the -mm patch when he
builds -next or I can send it as a formal patch for him to apply.
