[PATCH v1 3/3] arm64: mm: Remove pmd_sect() and pud_sect()

arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers:

The semantics of pXd_leaf() are very similar to pXd_sect(). The only
difference is that pXd_sect() only considers it a section if PTE_VALID
is set, whereas pXd_leaf() permits both "valid" and "present-invalid"
types.
Using pXd_sect() has caused issues now that large leaf entries can be
present-invalid since commit a166563e7ec37 ("arm64: mm: support large
block mapping when rodata=full"), so let's just remove the API and
standardize on pXd_leaf().
