Actually, in -rc4 (what I have lying around), the depends is just on HAS_IOMEM,
and the include in arch/um/Kconfig is guarded by "if BROKEN".
Building it, I hit the same darn error I've been patching my way around for
months:

Patch that, and then it breaks with:

All I enabled was CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK.
