From: Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit eba2591d99d1f14a04c8a8a845ab0795b93f5646 upstream. Instead of directly dereferencing page tables entries, which can cause issues (see commit 20a004e7b017 ("arm64: mm: Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page tables"), let's introduce new functions to get the pud/p4d/pgd entries (the pte and pmd versions already exist). Note that arm pgd_t is actually an array so pgdp_get() is defined as a macro to avoid a build error. Those new functions will be used in subsequent commits by the riscv architecture.
