I'm not applying this.  I _explicitly_ said I would not apply a
solution like this.

I waited for you guys all day for this?!?!

We need to find a way to make this a Kconfig dependency.

Build failures are absolutely unacceptable.

People do randconfig, allyesconfig, allmodconfig, etc. for build
regression testing and that has to work no matter what page size gets
selected or is the default for a given platform.
