We can hit the following BUG_ON during memory unplug:

This occurs when unplug is attempted for such memory which has
been mapped using memblock pages as part of early kernel page
table setup. We wouldn't have initialized the PMD or PTE fragment
count for those PMD or PTE pages.
This can be fixed by allocating memory in PAGE_SIZE granularity
during early page table allocation. This makes sure a specific
page is not shared for another memblock allocation and we can
free them correctly on removing page-table pages.
Since we now do PAGE_SIZE allocations for both PUD table and
PMD table (Note that PTE table allocation is already of PAGE_SIZE),
we end up allocating more memory for the same amount of system RAM.
Here is a comparision of how much more we need for a 64T and 2G
system after this patch:
1. 64T system
-------------
64T RAM would need 64G for vmemmap with struct page size being 64B.
128 PUD tables for 64T memory (1G mappings)
1 PUD table and 64 PMD tables for 64G vmemmap (2M mappings)
With default PUD[PMD]_TABLE_SIZE(4K), (128+1+64)*4K=772K
With PAGE_SIZE(64K) table allocations, (128+1+64)*64K=12352K
2. 2G system
------------
2G RAM would need 2M for vmemmap with struct page size being 64B.
1 PUD table for 2G memory (1G mapping)
1 PUD table and 1 PMD table for 2M vmemmap (2M mappings)
With default PUD[PMD]_TABLE_SIZE(4K), (1+1+1)*4K=12K
With new PAGE_SIZE(64K) table allocations, (1+1+1)*64K=192K

The naming of pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() seems to have confused a few
people, and until recently arm64 used these erroneously/pointlessly for
other levels of page table.
To make it incredibly clear that these only apply to the PTE level, and to
align with the naming of pgtable_pmd_page_{ctor,dtor}(), let's rename them
to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}().
These changes were generated with the following shell script:
----
git grep -lw 'pgtable_page_.tor' | while read FILE; do
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_ctor/pgtable_pte_page_ctor/}' $FILE;
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_dtor/pgtable_pte_page_dtor/}' $FILE;
done
----
... with the documentation re-flowed to remain under 80 columns, and
whitespace fixed up in macros to keep backslashes aligned.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Patch series "Add support for fast mremap".
This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at
the PMD level even for non-THP systems. There is concern that the extra
'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something
subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not
work. Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to
pte_alloc since its unused. This patch therefore removes this argument
tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well. Also ensuring
along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky
with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization.
Build and boot tested on x86-64. Build tested on arm64. The config
enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more
testing.
The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.
(thanks Julia for answering all Coccinelle questions!).
Following fix ups were done manually:
* Removal of address argument from pte_fragment_alloc
* Removal of pte_alloc_one_fast definitions from m68k and microblaze.
// Options: --include-headers --no-includes
// Note: I split the 'identifier fn' line, so if you are manually
// running it, please unsplit it so it runs for you.

In order to handle pte_fragment functions with single fragment
without adding pte_frag in all mm_context_t, this patch creates
two helpers which do nothing on platforms using a single fragment.

There is no point in taking the page table lock as pte_frag or
pmd_frag are always NULL when we have only one fragment.

In preparation of next patch which generalises the use of
pte_fragment_alloc() for all, this patch moves the related functions
in a place that is common to all subarches.
The 8xx will need that for supporting 16k pages, as in that mode
page tables still have a size of 4k.
Since pte_fragment with only once fragment is not different
from what is done in the general case, we can easily migrate all
subarchs to pte fragments.
