I actually tested this without hitting the issue (even though I didn't
mention it in the cover letter..). I re-kicked the build test, it turns
out my "make alldefconfig" on loongarch will generate a config with both
HUGETLB=n && THP=n, while arch/loongarch/configs/loongson3_defconfig has
THP=y (which I assume was the one above build used). I didn't further
check how "make alldefconfig" generated the config; a bit surprising that
it didn't fetch from there.

(and it also surprises me that this BUILD_BUG can trigger.. I used to try
triggering it elsewhere but failed..)

For loongarch the best thing is not compile in follow_huge_pud(), as it
doesn't support pud dax, neither does it support pud hugetlb. However
again that may require some more CONFIG_* options to declare the level one
arch supports on HUGETLB_PAGE. Here maybe the simplest (and it should also
cover all the rest archs on similar issues if ever possible to happen) is
we remove the BUILD_BUG() and explain why. It should be safe for loongarch
too here in this case to not defined it until properly supported.

Thanks,
