Subject: arm64/vmalloc: allow arch_vmap_pte_range_map_size to batch multiple CONT_PTE
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 20:08:08 +0800

Allow arch_vmap_pte_range_map_size to batch across multiple CONT_PTE
blocks, reducing both PTE setup and TLB flush iterations.

For CONT_PTE_SIZE-aligned ranges, return a power-of-two mapping size that
may cover multiple CONT_PTE blocks, capped below PMD_SIZE.  These sizes
are vmalloc mapping spans, not HugeTLB hstate sizes.
