I already commented on this - do we really need pud_large() which is
the same as pud_huge()? It's only defined on x86 and can be safely
replaced with pud_huge().

You could even go further and make pud/pmd_huge static inline functions
for slightly better efficiency (needs changing in the linux/hugetlb.h
header).
