If you split this patch into two and move the above hunk in a patch
before "[PATCH v4 09/16] powerpc/mm: Add new hash_page_mm()", it would
make it much easier to follow. We could then update the commit of the
09th patch to carry additional information that talk about how the
hash_page_mm really work as I replied to that patch.
