Core HugeTLB defines a fallback definition for arch_make_huge_pte(), which calls platform provided pte_mkhuge(). But if any platform already provides an override for arch_make_huge_pte(), then it does not need to provide the helper pte_mkhuge(). arm64 override for arch_make_huge_pte() calls pte_mkhuge() internally, thus creating an impression, that both of these callbacks are being used in core HugeTLB and hence required to be defined. This drops off pte_mkhuge() which was never required to begin with as there could not be any section mappings at the PTE level. Re-organize arch_make_huge_pte() based on requested page size and create the entry for the applicable page table level as needed. It also removes a redundancy of clearing PTE_TABLE_BIT bit followed by setting both PTE_TABLE_BIT and PTE_VALID bits (via PTE_TYPE_MASK) in the pte, while creating CONT_PTE_SIZE size entries.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
