For these architectures, provide a generic implementation in
asm-generic/pgalloc.h and convert them to use it. And like other levels
of page tables, add statistics for P4D level page table.

FWIW, introducing the generic implementation and adding ctor|dtors
look as separate changes to me.

OK, will separate it in v3.


...
  static inline void p4d_free(struct mm_struct *mm, p4d_t *p4d)
  {
-	if (!pgtable_l5_enabled())
-		return;
-	BUG_ON((unsigned long)p4d & (PAGE_SIZE-1));

Or maybe?

	BUG_ON(!IS_ALIGNED((unsigned long)p4d, PAGE_SIZE));

Do you mean to keep BUG_ON() and change it to the above form?

I would prefer to just drop BUG_ON() as is done with the other
page tables.

Thanks,
Qi
