From: Dave Hansen <[email protected]>
The page walker functions are only called _via_ the page
walker. I don't see this changing any time soon. The
page walker only calls walk->hugetlb_entry() under an
#ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE.
With this in place, I think putting BUG()s in the
->hugetlb_entry handlers is a bit like wearing a belt and
suspenders.
This axes the BUG() from the mincore ->hugetlb_entry along
with the #ifdef. The compiler is more than smart enough
to do the right thing when it sees:
if (1)
return;
// unreachable
The only downside here is that we now need some header stubs
for huge_pte_none() / huge_pte_get().
