Subject: [PATCH] Revert "x86/mm/ident_map: Use gbpages only where full GB page
should be mapped."
This reverts commit d794734c9bbfe22f86686dc2909c25f5ffe1a572.
While the original change tries to fix a bug, it also unintentionally broke
existing systems, see the regressions reported at:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/3a1b9909-45ac-4f97-ad68-d16ef1ce99db@pavinjoseph.com/
Since d794734c9bbf was also marked for -stable, let's back it out before
causing more damage.
Note that due to another upstream change the revert was not 100% automatic:

Thought I'd try and be of help. The pud_large() / pud_leaf() change
is what caused the difficulty in reversion.
