Architectures like arm64 have PUD level HugeTLB pages for certain configs
(1GB huge page is PUD based on ARM64_4K_PAGES base page size) that can be
enabled for migration. It can be achieved through checking for PUD_SHIFT
order based HugeTLB pages during migration.

nit: Extra Tab ^^.
Also, if only arm64 supports PUD_SHIFT, should this be added only in the arm64 specific backend, which we introduce later ?
