I find the below one more confusing and complicated, spreading the
details of DD1 around the code. I am not sure what extra i could have
done to simplify the code. We have done the arch pte updates such that
most of the update use the pte_update() interface and the one which relax
the access bits get to ptep_set_access_flag. All pte updated rules are
contained there. What you did below is that you moved the dd1 sequence
out to a place where page size is available. What I did in my patch is to
pass page size around. IMHO it is a matter of style. I also want to pass
page size around so that we keep huge_pte_update, pte_update,
ptep_set_access_flags all similar.
