Looks good. Just one thing, which I don't have full context to evaluate:

> + info.align_mask = PAGE_MASK & HUGEPT_MASK;

This will work only if HUGEPT_MASK == HUGEPT_SIZE - 1, as opposed to
the PAGE_MASK definition which is ~(PAGE_SIZE - 1).
Not sure how HUGEPT_MASK is defined, so please double check that.
