So if sz == PUD_SIZE and we have pud_none(*pud) == true, it returns the
pud. Isn't this different from what you proposed for the generic
huge_pte_offset()? [1]

Again, if sz == PMD_SIZE, you no longer return NULL. The generic
proposal in [1] looks like:

	if (pmd_none(*pmd))
		return NULL;

and that's even when sz == PMD_SIZE.

Anyway, I think we need to push for [1] again to be accepted before we
go ahead with these changes.
