boot_cpu_data [struct cpuinfo_um (on UML)] does not have a struct
member named 'x86', so provide a default page protection mode
for CONFIG_UML.

Mends this build error:
../drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_module.c: In function
‘ttm_prot_from_caching’:
../drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_module.c:59:24: error: ‘struct

   else if (boot_cpu_data.x86 > 3)

Patch looks OK.

I have a question though - why all of DRM is not !UML in config. Not
like we can use them.
I have no idea about that.
Hopefully one of the (other) UML maintainers can answer you.
Touche.

We will discuss that and possibly push a patch to !UML that part of the
tree. IMHO it is not applicable.
I thought kunit is based on top of uml, and we do want to eventually adopt
that. Especially for helper libraries like ttm.
UML is not actually a dependency for KUnit, so it's definitely
possible to test things which aren't compatible with UML. (In fact,
there's even now some tooling support to use qemu instead on a number
of architectures.)

That being said, the KUnit tooling does use UML by default, so if it's
not too difficult to keep some level of UML support, it'll make it a
little easier (and faster) for people to run any KUnit tests.

Cheers,
