COMPILE_TEST is meant for test-compiling drivers or subsystems that are not
useful on all platforms. IMHO COMPILE_TEST kernels are still supposed to boot
without ill effects.

Now, I understand the issue on PA-RISC is with the selftest, not with the actual
IOMMU_IO_PGTABLE_LPAE module? Then IOMMU_IO_PGTABLE_LPAE
can depend on ARM || COMPILE_TEST (|| ARM64, cfr. Laurent's later email).

But the selftest should protect itself against running on non-ARM, either
by making IOMMU_IO_PGTABLE_LPAE_SELFTEST depend on ARM(64)
(without "|| COMPILE_TEST"), or by adding a check to arm_lpae_do_selftests(),
to please all compile-testers.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
