    x86/mm: Undo double _PAGE_PSE clearing · 606c7193
    Dave Hansen 提交于
    When clearing _PAGE_PRESENT on a huge page, we need to be careful
    to also clear _PAGE_PSE, otherwise it might still get confused
    for a valid large page table entry.
    
    We do that near the spot where we *set* _PAGE_PSE.  That's fine,
    but it's unnecessary.  pgprot_large_2_4k() already did it.
    
    BTW, I also noticed that pgprot_large_2_4k() and
    pgprot_4k_2_large() are not symmetric.  pgprot_large_2_4k() clears
    _PAGE_PSE (because it is aliased to _PAGE_PAT) but
    pgprot_4k_2_large() does not put _PAGE_PSE back.  Bummer.
    
    Also, add some comments and change "promote" to "move".  "Promote"
    seems an odd word to move when we are logically moving a bit to a
    lower bit position.  Also add an extra line return to make it clear
    to which line the comment applies.
