Previously, call to hugepd_free() was compiled only when #ifdef 
CONFIG_PPC_FSL_BOOK3E
Now, it is compiled at all time, but it should never be called if not 
CONFIG_PPC_FSL_BOOK3E because we always have shift < pdshift in that case.
Then the function needs to be defined anyway but should never be called. 
Should I just define it static inline {} ?
