Hi Mike,

It seems I've missed your another mail in my client, I found it here
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/2/27/1927) just now.

I think we have reached an agreement that the pud/pmd need READ_ONCE in
huge_pte_offset() and disagreement is whether the pgd/p4d also need READ_ONCE,
right ?

> Are there any objections to the patch if the READ_ONCE() calls are removed?

Because the pgd/p4g are only accessed and dereferenced once here, so some guys
want to remove it.

But we must make sure they are *really* accessed once, in other words, this
makes we need to care about both the implementation of pgd_present/p4d_present
and the behavior of any compiler, for example:

'''
static inline int func(int val)
{
    return subfunc1(val) & subfunc2(val);
}

func(*p); // int *p
'''
We must make sure there's no strange compiler to generate an assemble code that
access and dereference 'p' more than once.

I've not found any backwards with READ_ONCE here. However, if you also agree to
remove READ_ONCE around pgd/p4d, I'll do.

I think remove the READ_ONCE around pgd/p4d won't cause any fucntional change.
