Grant already mentioned this to me this evening.
This happens if you build with CONFIG_SWAP=n, and is something that the
asm-generic/tlb.h also appears to suffer from. Why no one else has
noticed this I've no idea.
Note that linux/swap.h has this comment:
/* only sparc can not include linux/pagemap.h in this file
* so leave page_cache_release and release_pages undeclared... */
#define free_page_and_swap_cache(page) \
page_cache_release(page)
#define free_pages_and_swap_cache(pages, nr) \
release_pages((pages), (nr), 0);
which is rather annoying, because it makes the build error dependent on
the configuration.
So, we should add linux/pagemap.h to both asm-generic/tlb.h and the ARM
tlb.h as they both should suffer the same problem.
Note that arch/x86/mm/init.c and arch/x86/mm/pgtable.c both include
asm/tlb.h without linux/pagemap.h, and use the generic version. I bet
no one's tried building x86 with CONFIG_SWAP=n yet...
