I'd go with PMD_ENTRY_ORDER as Russell suggested last year. >From 6389dfb2e5ae5b040ca1c8f07a071d8da2873b13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 4 Jul 2022 09:17:40 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: head.S: rename PMD_ORDER to PMD_ENTRY_ORDER PMD_ORDER denotes order of magnitude for a PMD entry, i.e PMD entry size is 2 ^ PMD_ORDER. Rename PMD_ORDER to PMD_ENTRY_ORDER to allow a generic definition of PMD_ORDER as order of a PMD allocation: (PMD_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT).
