Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta) c6f11553c0 mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING
Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10.

This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM
guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage.


This patch (of 15):

pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page
table entries.  This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for
example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page
access without unmapping pages.

Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE
infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING.  The six architectures that
support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now
select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it.

No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have
working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available
independently of NUMA balancing.
