I can help with powerpc 8xx. It is a 32 bits powerpc. The PGD has 1024
entries, that means each entry maps 4M.

Page sizes are 4k, 16k, 512k and 8M.

For the 8M pages we use hugepd with a single entry. The two related PGD
entries point to the same hugepd.

For the other sizes, they are in standard page tables. 16k pages appear
4 times in the page table. 512k entries appear 128 times in the page
table.

When the PGD entry has _PMD_PAGE_8M bits, the PMD entry points to a
hugepd with holds the single 8M entry.

In the PTE, we have two bits: _PAGE_SPS and _PAGE_HUGE

_PAGE_HUGE means it is a 512k page
_PAGE_SPS means it is not a 4k page

The kernel can by build either with 4k pages as standard page size, or
16k pages. It doesn't change the page table layout though.
