You don't need to check the ifdef in a caller, there are stubs that
compile to nothing when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=n.

Do we need the ifdef here either? Looks like it should be safe to call
due to the stubs.

Did you test without this and notice something broken?

Looking at the generic version I can't tell why we need to override
this. Maybe we don't (anymore?) ?
