Commit 2c8a81dc0cc5 ("riscv/mm: fix two page table check related
issues") added pud_leaf() in include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h

Do the same for p4d_leaf() and pgd_leaf() to avoid getting them
erroneously defined by architectures that do not implement the
related page level.

Is it possible to do it the other way round, so that we can still rely on
"ifdef pxx_leaf" to decide whether to provide a fallback, and define them
properly when needed?

What do you mean by the "other way round" ? Did I do a mistake ? I can't see it.

The purpose here is:
- If the architecture has the said level and implements pXd_leaf(), that's fine - If the architecture has the said level and doesn't implement pXd_leaf(), that's also fine, a fallback is provided. - If the architecture doesn't have the said level but implements pXd_leaf(), it will conflict with the definition in include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopXd.h and the build will fail.

The purpose is to make sure architectures don't implement pXd_leaf() at the wrong level, for instance: - an architecture without PMDs shall not implement anything else than pmd_leaf()
- an architecture without P4Ds shall not implement pgd_leaf().



IMHO it was a neat way to avoid worrying on any macro defined; it'll be as
simple as "if function xxx not defined, let's define a fallback for xxx".
Per my limited experience it helped a lot on avoid compile issues here and
there..

That will still be the case.

This patch adds: "if function xxx is defined for wrong level, break the build"
