looks better IMO.

GFP_KERNEL does not include __GFP_HIGHMEM, so you can just use
GFP_KERNEL here.

Yes. Thanks.

I don't think __get_free_pages() should be replaced with alloc_pages()
here, just call pgtable_set_and_inc() with virt_to_page(pud).

I don't understand why you want that.  Take a look at the implementation
of __get_free_pages().  Converting back to a struct page after calling
that seems like a real waste of time to me.

IMO I have no strong preference. The code can be simpler with using __get_free_pages(), however like Matthew said it will add more conversion.
