IMHO it's fine to be here, as this is the patch to finally drop _huge(). Patch 11 only converts the callers to use _leaf()s. So this comment is still valid until this patch, because this patch removes that definition.

if (unlikely(pmd_val(pmd) & _PAGE_HUGE))Unlike pmd_huge() which is an outline function, pmd_leaf() is a macro so it could be used here instead of open coping.
I worry it will break things as pmd_leaf() can sometimes be defined after arch *pgtable.h headers. So I avoided touching it except what I think I'm confident. I had a feeling it's inlined just because of a similar reason for the old _huge().

The 2nd/3rd paragraphs are definitely obsolete, so should be dropped. OTOH, I'm not sure how much that will help if e.g. I move that over to pmd_leaf(): a check over cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PTE) is an implementation as simple as it could be to explain itself with even no comment to me.. I also don't fully digest why that 1st paragraph discusses PGD entries: for example, there's no pgd_huge() defined. It may not mean that the comment is wrong, perhaps it means that I may lack some knowledge around this area on Power.. Would you suggest how I should move paragraph 1 (and help to explain what it is describing)? Or maybe we can provide a separate patch for Power's huge page sizes but posted separately (and very possibly I'm not the best candidate then..).
