For page table walking code we don't need to put #ifdef here. Also how
should we handle address that we map at pmd level even if hugetlb page
is disabled ? (kernel linear mapping). Also where do we handle THP
mapping ? You may want to look at __find_linux_pte() to write a page
table walking code. or better use the helper.
