There are some 'pud_trans_huge(orig_pud) || pud_devmap(orig_pud)' checks in
core paths i.e in mm/memory.c which might suggest pud_trans_huge() to exist
without also being a devmap. I might be missing something here, but on x86
platform following helpers suggest pud_trans_huge() to exist without being
a devmap as well.

#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
static inline int pud_trans_huge(pud_t pud)
{
        return (pud_val(pud) & (_PAGE_PSE|_PAGE_DEVMAP)) == _PAGE_PSE;
}
#endif

#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
static inline int pud_devmap(pud_t pud)
{
        return !!(pud_val(pud) & _PAGE_DEVMAP);
}
#else
static inline int pud_devmap(pud_t pud)
{
        return 0;
}
#endif

We might need some more clarity on this regarding x86 platform's pud huge
page implementation.
