The kvmppc secure pages management code will be part of kvm-hv which can be built as module too. So it would require memremap_pages() to be exported. Additionally, non-dev version of the cleanup routine devm_memremap_pages_release() or equivalent would also be requried. With device being present, put_device() used to take care of this cleanup.
