Oh indeed I hadn't considered that arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode()
refer to those symbols on powerpc... Maybe a bit overkill to export
those just for a test module, but I'm not sure there's a good
alternative. Forcing LAZY_MMU_MODE_KUNIT_TEST=y is ugly as it would also
force KUNIT=y. Alternatively we could depend on !PPC, not pretty either.
