This is only relevant to the two archs that support PUD dax, aka, x86_64
and ppc64.  PUD THPs do not yet exist elsewhere, and hugetlb PUDs do not
count in this case.

DAX have had PUD mappings for years, but change protection path never
worked.  When the path is triggered in any form (a simple test program
would be: call mprotect() on a 1G dev_dax mapping), the kernel will report
"bad pud".  This patch should fix that.

The new change_huge_pud() tries to keep everything simple.  For example,
it doesn't optimize write bit as that will need even more PUD helpers. 
It's not too bad anyway to have one more write fault in the worst case
once for 1G range; may be a bigger thing for each PAGE_SIZE, though. 
Neither does it support userfault-wp bits, as there isn't such PUD
mappings that is supported; file mappings always need a split there.

The same to TLB shootdown: the pmd path (which was for x86 only) has the
trick of using _ad() version of pmdp_invalidate*() which can avoid one
redundant TLB, but let's also leave that for later.  Again, the larger the
mapping, the smaller of such effect.

There's some difference on handling "retry" for change_huge_pud() (where
it can return 0): it isn't like change_huge_pmd(), as the pmd version is
safe with all conditions handled in change_pte_range() later, thanks to
Hugh's new pte_offset_map_lock().  In short, change_pte_range() is simply
smarter.  For that, change_pud_range() will need proper retry if it races
with something else when a huge PUD changed from under us.

The last thing to mention is currently the PUD path ignores the huge pte
numa counter (NUMA_HUGE_PTE_UPDATES), not only because DAX is not
applicable to NUMA, but also that it's ambiguous on its own to decide how
to account pud in this case.  In one earlier version of this patchset I
proposed to remove the counter as it doesn't even look right to do the
accounting as of now [1], but then a further discussion suggests we can
leave that for later, as that doesn't block this series if we choose to
ignore that counter.  That's what this patch does, by ignoring it.

When at it, touch up the comment in pgtable_split_needed() to make it
generic to either pmd or pud file THPs.
