    mm/powerpc: add missing pud helpers · 4dd7724f
    Peter Xu authored
    Some new helpers will be needed for pud entry updates soon.  Introduce
    these helpers by referencing the pmd ones.  Namely:
    
      - pudp_invalidate(): this helper invalidates a huge pud before a split
      happens, so that the invalidated pud entry will make sure no race will
      happen (either with software, like a concurrent zap, or hardware, like
      a/d bit lost).
    
      - pud_modify(): this helper applies a new pgprot to an existing huge pud
      mapping.
    
    For more information on why we need these two helpers, please refer to the
    corresponding pmd helpers in the mprotect() code path.
