Build regression: arm64 hugetlbpage.c undeclared identifier 'sz' Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing lkft@linaro.org
## Build log arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:386:28: error: use of undeclared identifier 'sz' 386 | ncontig = num_contig_ptes(sz, &pgsize); | ^ 1 error generated.
This is the same problem we were discussing againt the 6.13 backport. This patch depends on a patch that conflicted so wasn't auto-backported. I'll send out the manual backports in due course.
