Small nit, formatting like below would have been better. But dont change yet
unless there is a respin.

static struct page * __init
debug_vm_pgtable_alloc_huge_page(struct pgtable_debug_args *args, int order)

Expected like this instead. 'args->start_p4dp' should not be evaluated
unless 'args->p4dp' allocation succeeds. Otherwise on the error path,
it would call p4d_free(args->mm, args->start_p4dp) freeing up a page
table page which was never allocated !

	args->pgdp = pgd_offset(args->mm, args->vaddr);
	args->p4dp = p4d_alloc(args->mm, args->pgdp, args->vaddr);
	if (!args->p4dp) {
		pr_err("Failed to allocate p4d entries\n");
		ret = -ENOMEM;
		goto error;
	}
	args->start_p4dp = p4d_offset(args->pgdp, 0UL);
	WARN_ON(!args->start_p4dp);

I had requested just to move these two sentences into the previous code
block, without changing any order. This is also applicable for all other
page table levels below.
