I have one local patch that will only set that one time too. also do
other page size probe one time.
please check attached one.
Thanks

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86, mm: Introduce global page_size_mask
Add probe_page_size_mask() to detect if need to use 1G or 2M.
and store them in page_size_mask.
Only probe them at first init_memory_mapping calling.
second and later init_memory_mapping() calling does not need probe again.
also we don't need to pass use_gbpages around.
