I don't think your patch is wrong, but wouldn't it be easier and
cleaner to just do this instead

    --- a/include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h
    +++ b/include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h
    @@ -60,7 +60,7 @@ static inline pmd_t * pmd_offset(pud_t * pud,
unsigned long address)
     static inline void pmd_free(struct mm_struct *mm, pmd_t *pmd)
     {
     }
    -#define __pmd_free_tlb(tlb, x, a)          do { } while (0)
    +#define pmd_free_tlb(tlb, x, a)            do { } while (0)

     #undef  pmd_addr_end
     #define pmd_addr_end(addr, end)                    (end)

and just rely on the regular "#ifndef pmd_free_tlb" in
include/asm-generic/tlb.h?

Completely untested.
