Our stage2 page table helpers are statically defined based on the fixed IPA of 40bits and the host page size. As we are about to add support for configurable IPA size for VMs, we need to make the page table checks for each VM. This patch prepares the stage2 helpers to make the transition to a VM dependent table layout easier. Instead of statically defining the table helpers based on the page table levels, we now check the page table levels in the helpers to do the right thing. In effect, it simply converts the macros to static inline functions.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
