There is a generic fallback for PUD_SIZE in include/asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h when
it is not defined on arm64 platform and pud_sect_supported() might also get optimized
by the compiler.

static inline bool pud_sect_supported(void)
{
        return PAGE_SIZE == SZ_4K;
}

IIUC this just saves dead code from being compiled as you mentioned.

PUD_SIZE switch cases in hugetlb_mask_last_page() and arch_make_huge_pte() ? Those
should be fixed.

Agreed.
