Do you see the following after running 'make menuconfig':

# grep PROC_MM .config
CONFIG_PROC_MM=y
#

If so, then you're good. If not...

No, the host system does NOT need a /dev/ubd? device. You need to change
your guest image's configuration to use the device. Edit /etc/fstab to
reflect the /dev/ubd? device.
