s/a easy/an easy/
The rationale for the structure should be explained better. I am wondering
whether it would be preferable to solve the dynamic page allocation problem
first in respective test functions, before introducing this structure which
will convert all test functions.

There are two set of resources before all functions use the new structure.
Makes sense.

Replace #ifdef with IS_ENABLED(). There is no symbol visibility problem
without those #ifdef here.

This could be further simplified.
if (debug->pud_pfn) {
__free_pages(page, PUD_ORDER)
done
}
if (debug->pmd_pfn) {
__free_pages(page, PMD_ORDER)
done
}
if (debug->pte_pfn)
__free_pages(page, 0)
If the debug->pxx_pfn is positive and (!= ULONG_MAX), it can be assumed
that pxx level memory was allocated successfully and is being freed up
here. Just need to start from the highest order though.

Till here...
I am wondering whether it is really necessary to cross check all these
elements here for being non-NULL, before freeing or rather destroying.
Except for the allocated huge memory containing pfns and pages, all
other elements should be asserted before proceeding with the test.
Hence no additional checks should be required while freeing.

Should use VMFLAGS instead.

It should instead define yet another helper, which would reset all
structure elements to NULL or some unusable values before they get
initialized here. Possibly [reset/clr]_debug_pgtable_args() ?

(PXXX ?) construct is really required here. Should not pxx_alloc()
return NULL if the previous level pointer is NULL ? Regardless it
might be better to just assert that these intermediary levels are
allocated before proceeding further. It does not make sense to go
ahead with the test if any of the allocations failed ! Similar to
mm and vma.

Please keep the existing construct via tmp pointer obtained from
READ_ONCE() on (debug->pmdp) before getting used in pmd_pgtable().

There is no symbol visibility problem without this #ifdef. Hence
please use IS_ENABLED() constructs here instead.

With the above mentioned changes (page ?) constructs should not be
required anymore.
