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.

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.
