[PATCH v5 1/3] arm64: mmu: introduce pgtable_alloc_t

From: Yeoreum Yun <hidden>
Date: 2026-01-05 20:23:36
Also in: linux-rt-devel, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

This is preparation patch to use preallocated page tables
for linear_map_split_to_ptes().

Define pgtable_alloc_t type for callback used by create_XXX_mapping().
