This enables module_alloc() to allocate huge page for 2MB+ requests.
To check the difference of this change, we need enable config
CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS, and call module_alloc(2MB). Before the change,
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel shows pte for this map. With the
change, /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/ show pmd for thie map.

I bisected to your commit fac54e2bfb5 (x86/Kconfig: select
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC with HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP).
Sorry, I forget to mention, that this is a 32-bit (i686) userspace, but
a 64-bit Linux kernel, so it might be the same issue as mentioned in
commit eed1fcee556f (x86: Disable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC on 32-bit x86),
but didn’t fix the issue for 64-bit Linux kernel and 32-bit userspace.
Kind regards,
Paul
