A small nit.

s/seravel/several

Will fix.


continuous pte or pmd entries with same page table attributes. And it
will not take into account the subpages' dirty or young bits of a
CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb page.

So the huge_ptep_get() is inconsistent with huge_ptep_get_and_clear(),
which already takes account the dirty or young bits for any subpages
in this CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb [1]. Meanwhile we can miss dirty or
young flags statistics for hugetlb pages with current huge_ptep_get(),
such as the gather_hugetlb_stats() function, and CONT-PTE/PMD hugetlb
monitoring with DAMON.

Thus define an ARM64 specific huge_ptep_get() implementation, that will
take into account any subpages' dirty or young bits for CONT-PTE/PMD size
hugetlb page, for those functions that want to check the dirty and young
flags of a hugetlb page.

Might be worth mentioning that arm64 now enables __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET.

Sure.

Hmm, I guess there is no better way of deriving page size here.

Please drop the extra line here.
