#1630327 — [PATCH 1/2] x86/mm/ident_map: Add PUD level 1GB page support

Subject[PATCH 1/2] x86/mm/ident_map: Add PUD level 1GB page support
Message-ID<tA4Nz-2KQ-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
The current kernel_ident_mapping_init() creates the identity
mapping using 2MB page(PMD level), this patch adds the 1GB
page(PUD level) support.

This is useful on large machines to save some reserved memory
(as paging structures) in the kdump case when kexec setups up
identity mappings before booting into the new kernel.

We will utilize this new support in the following patch.

how about use direct_gbpages instead?
use_pud_page is confusing.

should mask addr with PUD_MASK.
   addr &= PUD_MASK;
   set_pud(pud, __pmd(addr - info->offset) | info->page_flag);
