I took a look. hmat_disable, acpi_numa, and numa_emu_cmdline() are in
other compilation units. I could wrap writing those variables with
helper functions, and change numa_emu_cmdline(), to compile away when
their respective configuration options are not present.

Should we do that in general to have a touch point to report "you
specified an option that is invalid for your current kernel
configuration"? I'm happy to do that as a follow-on if you think it's
worthwhile.
