    Subject[PATCH 39/46] hugetlb: x86: enable high-granularity mapping
    From
    Now that HGM is fully supported for GENERAL_HUGETLB, x86 can enable it.
    The x86 KVM MMU already properly handles HugeTLB HGM pages (it does a
    page table walk to determine which size to use in the second-stage page
    table instead of, for example, checking vma_mmu_pagesize, like arm64
    does).

    We could also enable HugeTLB HGM for arm (32-bit) at this point, as it
    also uses GENERAL_HUGETLB and I don't see anything else that is needed
    for it. However, I haven't tested on arm at all, so I won't enable it.
