FYI This doesn't work on Ubuntu 20.04 or Debian Bullseye due to libc being too
old. So I used an Ubuntu 22.04 VM (x86_64), but with that was getting internal
compiler errors while compiling. Despite that, was able to repro and fix the error.

Will do - thanks!

Root cause is due to this being MMU=n build, where the ptep helpers (including
ptep_deref()) are not defined. A huge_ptep_clear_flush() default is still
defined for linking reasons, which derefrences the ptep, so changing that to the
new helper blows up in this config.

Fixed with:

 static inline pte_t huge_ptep_clear_flush(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
 					  unsigned long addr, pte_t *ptep)
 {
+#ifdef CONFIG_MMU
	return ptep_deref(ptep);
+#else
+	return *ptep;
+#endif
 }

Will include with v2.

Thanks,
Ryan
