Semantics wise, [pud|pmd]_bad() have always implied that a given [PUD|PMD]
entry does not have a pointer to the next level page table. This had been
made clear in the commit a1c76574f345 ("arm64: mm: use *_sect to check for
section maps"). Hence explicitly check for a table entry rather than just
testing a single bit. This basically redefines [pud|pmd]_bad() in terms of
[pud|pmd]_table() making the semantics clear.

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.
