Matthew Wilcox a00cc7d9dd mm, x86: add support for PUD-sized transparent hugepages
The current transparent hugepage code only supports PMDs.  This patch
adds support for transparent use of PUDs with DAX.  It does not include
support for anonymous pages.  x86 support code also added.

Most of this patch simply parallels the work that was done for huge
PMDs.  The only major difference is how the new ->pud_entry method in
mm_walk works.  The ->pmd_entry method replaces the ->pte_entry method,
whereas the ->pud_entry method works along with either ->pmd_entry or
->pte_entry.  The pagewalk code takes care of locking the PUD before
calling ->pud_walk, so handlers do not need to worry whether the PUD is
stable.
