Radix mark the top two bits at upper level page table tree.

ie,


static inline void pud_populate(struct mm_struct *mm, pud_t *pud, pmd_t *pmd)
{
	pud_set(pud, __pgtable_ptr_val(pmd));
}

static inline void rpud_populate(struct mm_struct *mm, pud_t *pud, pmd_t *pmd)
{
	*pud = __pud(__pa(pmd) | RPUD_VAL_BITS);
}


I guess we will do the same with hash to keep them same ?
