POWER9 supports hugepages of size 2M and 1G in radix MMU mode. This patch
enables the usage of 1G page size for hugetlbfs. This also update the helper
such we can do 1G page allocation at runtime.
We still don't enable 1G page size on DD1 version. This is to avoid doing
workaround mentioned in commit: 6d3a0379ebdc8 (powerpc/mm: Add

I think this patch is OK, but it's very confusing because it doesn't
mention that it's only talking about *generic* gigantic page support.
What you mean by generic gigantic page ? what is supported here is the
gigantic page with size 1G alone ?
We have existing support for gigantic pages on powerpc, on several
platforms. This patch appears to break that, but I think doesn't in
practice?
What is broken ?
So can you make it a bit clearer in the commit message, and the code,
that this is only about enabling the generic gigantic page support, and
is unrelated to the arch-specific gigantic page support.
cheers
