Good point, although I'd actually be more tempted to do the opposite -
remove the special casing for PUD/PMD as the generic code should now
never provide those levels if they are folded. What do you think?

Yes, sorry - that was needed in a previous version of the series, but I
apparently forgot to remove it.

Yes - I'll send a follow up patch which shifts the levels down. I
originally picked the levels to match the existing dump implementations
on x86/arm64. But it appears that x86 has had its levels artificially
inflated in the past, so actually moving it back down and matching
'depth' should make the code slightly more simple.
