When pud-sized hugepages were introduced for s390, the generic version of follow_huge_pud() was using pte_page() instead of pud_page(). This would be wrong for s390, see also commit9753412701("mm/hugetlb: use pmd_page() in follow_huge_pmd()"). Therefore, and probably because not all archs were supporting pud_page() at that time, a private version of follow_huge_pud() was added for s390, correctly using pud_page(). Since commit3a194f3f8a("mm/hugetlb: make pud_huge() and follow_huge_pud() aware of non-present pud entry"), the generic version of follow_huge_pud() is now also using pud_page(), and in general behaves similar to follow_huge_pmd(). Therefore we can now switch to the generic version and get rid of the s390-specific follow_huge_pud().

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 Restructured Text 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.
