Despite the name of the function hmm_vma_handle_pmd is not a callback
for the pagewalk, but actually called from hmm_vma_handle_pmd.

What we could try is just and empty non-inline prototype without an
actual implementation, which means if the compiler doesn't optimize
the calls away we'll get a link error.
