Given how later we are in the -rc cycle, I suggest we revert Anshuman's commit 16c9afc77660 ("arm64/mm: drop HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID") and try to assess the implications in 5.15 (the patch doesn't seem to have the arm64 maintainers' ack anyway ;)).I'll stick the revert (below) into kernelci now so we can get some coverage in case it breaks something else.
Bah, having said that...

I suppose we should leave this bit as-is, since the whole point here is trying to minimise the impact on other architectures.
