Hi,
Hello Mike,

This is a part of clean up of the page table manipulation code that aims to
remove asm-generic/5level-fixup.h and asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d-hack.h

There is a single patch for both arm and arm64 because doing the conversion
separately would mean breaking the shared mmu bits in virt/kvm/arm.

The patch is build tested and boot tested on qemu-system-{arm,aarch64}.
There are lots of code changes here for a single patch but as you have
mentioned shared KVM bits would have prevented splitting arm and arm64
changes into separate patches. Just curious, are you planning to respin
this patch sooner after fixing the reported build problems caused by
missing p4d_offset_kimg() and p4d_sect() definitions ?
Well, I was waiting to see if there was some feedback except kbuild robot
response :)

I'm planning to send v2 soon, probably next week.
