Convert page_table_check_p[mu]d_set(...) to page_table_check_p[mu]ds_set(..., nr) to allow checking a contiguous set of pmds/puds in single batch. We retain page_table_check_p[mu]d_set(...) as macros that call new batch functions with nr=1 for compatibility. arm64 is about to reorganise its pte/pmd/pud helpers to reuse more code and to allow the implementation for huge_pte to more efficiently set ptes/pmds/puds in batches. We need these batch-helpers to make the refactoring possible.

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.
