As per the review comment
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240314162954.GAZfMmAnYQoRjRbRzc@fat_crate.local/
, modified the patch to be a independent of kernel internal
definitions.
Though this enum and below function "get_sub_leaf" are not useful
now, it will be required when we extend for a new/different
features.
I will fix all other review comments in my next version.
thanks,

The only actual "functionality" is the default case and that's completely pointless.
