This was reported by Naresh Kamboju last week:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/CA+G9fYsWHE5Vu9T3FV-vtHHbVFJWEF=bmjQxwaZs3uVYef028g@mail.gmail.com/

It seems to be related to the fact that older versions of clang cannot 
figure out that the HPAGE_PUD case in move_pgt_entry() is never called 
when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGE is unset so it is not eliminated, which is 
problematic because flush_pud_tlb_range() evaluates to BUILD_BUG() in 
that case, which is called within move_huge_pud().

Aneesh had a patch in that thread above that would resolve the issue, it 
just needs to be sent to Andrew for a fixup patch.

Cheers,
