walk_page_range() is going to be allowed to walk page tables other than
those of user space. For this it needs to know when it has reached a
'leaf' entry in the page tables. This information is provided by the
p?d_leaf() functions/macros.

For powerpc p?d_is_leaf() functions already exist. Export them using the
new p?d_leaf() name.

We have fallback versions of our pmd_is_leaf() etc. in
arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable.h, eg:

#ifndef pmd_is_leaf
#define pmd_is_leaf pmd_is_leaf
static inline bool pmd_is_leaf(pmd_t pmd)
{
	return false;
}
#endif

Because we support several different MMUs and most of them don't need to
do anything.

So we could put the compatibility #defines to your names along with the
fallback versions in asm/pgtable.h, rather than in
asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h

But I see you also have fallbacks for your versions, so it probably
doesn't matter either way.

So I'm OK with this version, unless you think there's a compelling
reason to do the compatibility #defines in our asm/pgtable.h
I was thinking that (assuming this series actually gets merged this
time), the p?d_is_leaf() versions could be removed and replaced by
p?d_leaf() in the future. Since the fallbacks are in the asm-generic
code it makes sense for the pmd_leaf() definitions to be next to the
non-fallback versions.

Thanks!
