[PATCH v2 03/13] mm: Add generic p?d_large() macros

From: Steven Price <steven.price@arm.com>
Date: 2019-02-21 11:35:30
Also in: linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: generic include/asm header files, the rest · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, Linus Torvalds

From: James Morse <james.morse@arm.com>

Exposing the pud/pgd levels of the page tables to walk_page_range() means
we may come across the exotic large mappings that come with large areas
of contiguous memory (such as the kernel's linear map).

For architectures that don't provide p?d_large() macros, provided a
does nothing default.
