Patch series "Fix CONFIG_TEST_KMOD with 256kB page size".
The kernel test robot reported a build error [1] from a failed assertion
in fs/btrfs/inode.c with a hexagon randconfig that includes
CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_256KB. This error is the same one that was addressed
by commit b05fbcc36be1 ("btrfs: disable build on platforms having page
size 256K") but CONFIG_TEST_KMOD selects CONFIG_BTRFS without having the
"page size less than 256kB dependency", which results in the error
reappearing.
The first patch introduces CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_LESS_THAN_256KB by splitting
it off from CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_LESS_THAN_64KB, which was introduced in
commit 1f0e290cc5fd ("arch: Add generic Kconfig option indicating page
size smaller than 64k") for a similar reason in 5.16-rc3.
The second patch uses that configuration option for CONFIG_BTRFS to
reduce duplication.
The third patch resolves the build error by adding
CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_LESS_THAN_256KB as a dependency to CONFIG_TEST_KMOD so
that CONFIG_BTRFS does not get enabled under that invalid configuration.

This patch (of 3):
btrfs requires a page size smaller than 256kB. To use that dependency
in other places, introduce CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_LESS_THAN_256KB and reuse
that dependency in CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_LESS_THAN_64KB.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
