Yes, mmu_context.c is always compiled, but as I explained, 
radix__init_new_context() is defined as 'static' so it is optimised out 
when radix_enabled() returns false because there is no caller in that case.

I just made the test with ppc64_defconfig + CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU=n (GCC 8.1)

The only failure I got was on lpar.c, which I fixed by enclosing the 
entire radix_init_pseries() in an #ifdef.

Once this is fixed, the build is OK, without any modification to 
mmu_context.c

powerpc64-linux-objdump -x arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/mmu_context.o shows 
only the following objects in the .toc:

mmu_pid_bits and mmu_base_pid are not part of the undefined objetcs:
