Update few code paths to check for pmd_large. set_pmd_at: We want to use this to store swap pte at pmd level. For swap ptes we don't want to set H_PAGE_THP_HUGE. Hence check for pmd_large in set_pmd_at. This remove the false WARN_ON when using this with swap pmd entry. pmd_page: We don't really use them on pmd migration entries. But they can also work with migration entries and we don't differentiate at the pte level. Hence update pmd_page to work with pmd migration entries too __find_linux_pte: lockless page table walk need to handle pmd migration entries. pmd_trans_huge check will return false on them. We don't set thp = 1 for such entries, but update hpage_shift correctly. Without this we will walk pmd migration entries as a pte page pointer which is wrong.

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.
