The code for operations such as marking the pfn as dirty, and
dcache/icache maintenance during stage 2 fault handling is duplicated
between normal pages and PMD hugepages.

Instead of creating another copy of the operations when we introduce
PUD hugepages, let's share them across the different pagesizes.

A small nit s/vma_pagesize/pagesize. Why call it VMA ? Its implicit.

May be we could call it mapsize. pagesize is confusing.


I'm ok with mapsize. I see the vma_pagesize name coming from the fact
that this is initially set to the return value from vma_kernel_pagesize.

I have not problems with either vma_pagesize or mapsize.

Ok, I will retain the vma_pagesize to avoid unnecessary changes to the patch.

Thanks
