Hello Randy,

on i386, I am seeing lots of build errors due to references to
some PAGE_ flags that are only defined for 64BIT:

Thanks for this report!  However, the flag is not defined for only-64BIT but
none-64BIT.

'enum page_ext_flags' is defined when 'CONFIG_PAGE_EXTENSION' is set.  It is
automatically set for non-64BIT when 'CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING' or
'CONFIG_DAMON_VADDR' is set.  However, 'CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG' doesn't.  So, if
'CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG' is set but 'CONFIG_PAGE_EXTENSION' is not, this issue
can be reproduced.

I was able to reproduce this issue with:

    make ARCH=i386 allnoconfig
    echo 'CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG=y' >> .config
    make olddefconfig
    make ARCH=i386

And, confirmed below change fixes it.
