Yes I think that's correct.

4K Hash MMU doesn't support any hugepage size at PMD or PUD level (the
geometry is wrong), so pmd/pud_huge() were written with that in mind,
ie. they are hard coded to return false.

But it should be OK to use pmd/pud_leaf(), they will actually look for
_PAGE_PTE, but it should never be set for 4K Hash.

See eg. arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/hash-4k.h:

static inline pmd_t hash__pmd_mkhuge(pmd_t pmd)
{
	BUG();
	return pmd;
}

This doesn't actually compile though.

  arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable-4k.h:11:16: error: implicit declaration of function ‘pmd_leaf’; did you mean ‘pgd_clear’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

etc.

To make it compile we'd need to relocate the pmd/pud_leaf() definitions:
