Yes, that brings up a good point.

Since we only do PMD sharing with PMD_SIZE huge pages, that should be
part of the check as to whether we try PUD_SIZE alignment.  The initial
check should be expanded as follows:

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE) && !addr &&
    flags & MAP_SHARED && huge_page_size(h) == PMD_SIZE && len >= PUD_SIZE)
	pud_size_align = true;

In that case, pud_size_align remains false and we do not retry.
