Hi Christophe,

Which hugepd, page table entries can be at any level
and can be of any size.

Add support for them.

It seems to me that passing both level and page_size is a bit redundant,
but I guess it does reduce the impact on each arch's code?
Exactly, as shown above, the level can be re-calculated based on the page size, but it would be a 
unnecessary impact on all architectures and would duplicate the re-calculation of the level whereas 
in most cases we get it for free from the caller.
Kind regards,
Daniel
