Steven Rostedt 1a576136f8 drm/ttm: Fix compile error when CONFIG_SHMEM is not set
When CONFIG_SHMEM is not set, the following compiler error occurs:

  ld: vmlinux.o: in function `ttm_backup_backup_page':
  (.text+0x10363bc): undefined reference to `shmem_writeout'
  make[3]: *** [/work/build/trace/nobackup/linux.git/scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:91: vmlinux.unstripped] Error 1

This is due to the replacement of writepage and calling swap_writeout()
and shmem_writeout() directly.  The issue is that when CONFIG_SHMEM is
not defined, shmem_writeout() is also not defined.

The function ttm_backup_backup_page() called mapping->a_ops->writepage()
which was then changed to call shmem_writeout() directly.

Even before commit 84798514db ("mm: Remove swap_writepage() and
shmem_writepage()"), it didn't make sense to call anything other than
shmem_writeout() as the ttm_backup deals only with shmem folios.

Have DRM_TTM config option select SHMEM to guarantee that
shmem_writeout() is available.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
