[PATCH] bpf: fix a no-mmu build failure by providing a stub allocator

From: John Hubbard
Date: Mon Nov 25 2019 - 18:41:13 EST


Commit fc9702273e2e ("bpf: Add mmap() support for BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY")
added code that calls vmalloc_user_node_flags() and therefore requires
mm/vmalloc.c. However, that file is not built for the !CONFIG_MMU case.
This leads to a build failure when using ARM with the config provided
by at least one particular kbuild test robot report [1].

Fix the build by providing a stub function for __bpf_map_area_alloc().
