We have fallback versions of our pmd_is_leaf() etc. in
arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable.h, eg:

#ifndef pmd_is_leaf
#define pmd_is_leaf pmd_is_leaf
static inline bool pmd_is_leaf(pmd_t pmd)
{
	return false;
}
#endif

Because we support several different MMUs and most of them don't need to
do anything.

So we could put the compatibility #defines to your names along with the
fallback versions in asm/pgtable.h, rather than in
asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h

But I see you also have fallbacks for your versions, so it probably
doesn't matter either way.

So I'm OK with this version, unless you think there's a compelling
reason to do the compatibility #defines in our asm/pgtable.h
