[PATCH v8 13/20] mm: pagewalk: Add test_p?d callbacks

From: Steven Price
Date: Wed Apr 03 2019 - 10:18:06 EST


It is useful to be able to skip parts of the page table tree even when
walking without VMAs. Add test_p?d callbacks similar to test_walk but
which are called just before a table at that level is walked. If the
callback returns non-zero then the entire table is skipped.
