Hi Kevin, 

I guess, this can give following errors:

../arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/hash_tlb.c:33:1: error: data definition has no type or storage class [-Werror]
   33 | EXPORT_SYMBOL_IF_KUNIT(ppc64_tlb_batch); /* For lazy_mmu_mode KUnit tests */
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/hash_tlb.c:33:1: error: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL_IF_KUNIT’ [-Werror=implicit-int]

make[5]: *** [../scripts/Makefile.build:556: arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64] Error 2


IMO, we will need the following header in hash_tlb.c

+#include <kunit/visibility.h>
