Sounds good, thanks both!
Besides, I do plan to introduce a new macro in the next version to mean "THP || HUGETLB", so as to put PxD code segments into it and not compile when unnecessary (!THP && !HUGETLB).
Currently what I had is:
config PGTABLE_HAS_HUGE_LEAVES def_bool TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE || HUGETLB_PAGE
I didn't use something like CONFIG_HUGE_PAGE because it's too close to HUGETLB_PAGE, even if generic and short enough. Please speak if there's any early comments on that, either the name or the format. For example, I can also define it in e.g. mm/internal.h, instead of a config entry.
