Change #ifdef CONFIG_MEM_ACCESS by OR-ing defined(CONFIG_ARM),
allowing asm/mem_access.h to be included in all ARM build configurations.
This is to address the violation of MISRA C: 2012 Rule 8.4 which states:
"A compatible declaration shall be visible when an object or function
with external linkage is defined". Functions p2m_mem_access_check
and p2m_mem_access_check_and_get_page when CONFIG_MEM_ACCESS is not
defined in ARM builds don't have visible declarations in the file
containing their definitions.

This doesn't look quite right. If Arm supports mem-access, why would it
not set MEM_ACCESS=y? Whereas if it's only stubs that Arm supplies, then
those would better move here, thus eliminating the need for a per-arch
stub header (see what was e.g. done for numa.h). This way RISC-V and PPC
(and whatever is to come) would then be taken care of as well.

ARM does support mem-access, so I don't think this is akin to the 
changes done to handle numa.h.
ARM also allows users to set MEM_ACCESS=n (e.g. 
xen/arch/arm/configs/tiny64_defconfig) and builds just fine; however, 
the implementation file mem_access.c is compiled unconditionally in 
ARM's makefile, hence why the violation was spotted.
This is a bit unusual, so I was also hoping to get some feedback from 
mem-access maintainers as to why this discrepancy from x86 exists. I 
probably should have also included some ARM maintainers as well, so I'm 
going to loop them in now.

An alternative option I think is to make the compilation of arm's 
mem_access.c conditional on CONFIG_MEM_ACCESS (as for x86/mm and 
common).

I can't think of a reason to have mem_access.c unconditional compiled 
in. So I think it should be conditional like on x86.

Hi,
attempting to build ARM with a configuration where MEM_ACCESS=n and 
mem_access.c is conditioned on CONFIG_MEM_ACCESS results in a fail as 
there are other pieces of code that call some mem_access.c functions 
(p2m_mem_access_check_and_get_page, p2m_mem_access_check).
In a Matrix chat Julien was suggesting adding stubs for the functions 
for this use case.

Perhaps just wrap the callers into #ifdef CONFIG_MEM_ACCESS blocks?

In Xen, we tend prefer stubs over #ifdef-ing code blocks. I would rather 
use this approach here too.

I was looking at arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c for examples on how MEM_PAGING and
MEM_SHARING calls are handled and those were ifdef'd. I have no
preference for one vs the other, both work.
