I think pud_dirty() should only be defined if
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD which is not the case on
arm64. Well, the pud_young/mkyoung/write should probably also be removed
until we have pud pages on arm64.

The wp_clean_pud_entry() function bails out early since
pud_trans_unstable() returns 0 on arm64. So we either bracket this
function by some #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD or we
make some generic definitions for pud_* accessors when we don't have
this config.

Agreed. I got confused by pud_young and co being defined here even
though they're all shielded by CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
when they're used and incorrectly assumed the practice was to define
them for arm64 here whether CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
was defined or not.

I'll go ahead and shield the pud_dirty with
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD in mapping_dirty_helpers.c
instead.
