Yes.

And our ugly friend CONFIG_USERFAULTFD

that is

struct vm_userfaultfd_ctx {
	struct userfaultfd_ctx *ctx;
};
#else /* CONFIG_USERFAULTFD */
#define NULL_VM_UFFD_CTX ((struct vm_userfaultfd_ctx) {})
struct vm_userfaultfd_ctx {};
#endif /* CONFIG_USERFAULTFD */

(yes, you made the same mistake as I made when skimming if everything 
relevant was enabled)

Looks like it!
