You are suggesting remove that PPC_64K_PAGES line right ? I was not sure
about other platforms that use 64K pages.

Any page table operation that involved PTE bit position I am moving to
hash.h with the expectation that we will have to put a conditional call
in there. Functions like pgd_none and pgd_clear don't use bit
positions.
