I assume this means DAX can have 1GB pages? I ask because KVM's THP logic
has historically relied on THP only supporting 2MB. I cleaned this up in
a recent series[*], which is in kvm/queue, but I obviously didn't actually
test whether or not KVM would correctly handle 1GB non-hugetlbfs pages.
The easiest thing is probably to rebase on kvm/queue. You'll need to do
that anyways, and I suspect doing so will help shake out any hiccups.
