Currently hugetlb_fault() checks at first whether pte of the faulted address is a migration or hwpoisoned entry, which means that we call huge_ptep_get() twice in single hugetlb_fault(). This is not optimized. The reason of this approach is that without checking at first, huge_pte_alloc() can trigger BUG_ON() because pmd_huge() returned false for non-present hugetlb entry. With a previous patch in this series, pmd_huge() becomes to return true for non-present entry, so we no longer need this dirty workaround. Let's move the checking code to the proper place.
