pgd_entry() and pud_entry() were removed by commit 0b1fbfe50006c410
("mm/pagewalk: remove pgd_entry() and pud_entry()") because there were no
users. We're about to add users so reintroduce them, along with
p4d_entry() as we now have 5 levels of tables.
Note that commit a00cc7d9dd93d66a ("mm, x86: add support for PUD-sized
transparent hugepages") already re-added pud_entry() but with different
semantics to the other callbacks. This commit reverts the semantics back
to match the other callbacks.
To support hmm.c which now uses the new semantics of pud_entry() a new
member ('action') of struct mm_walk is added which allows the callbacks to
either descend (ACTION_SUBTREE, the default), skip (ACTION_CONTINUE) or
repeat the callback (ACTION_AGAIN). hmm.c is then updated to call
pud_trans_huge_lock() itself and make use of the splitting/retry logic of
the core code.
After this change pud_entry() is called for all entries, not just
transparent huge pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
