PTE is not the right prefix here - we don't deal with the lowest level
of page tables, which in Linux is called PTE.  I think you mean PMD_WORDS
instead.

Are you sure these shifts by 18 places are correct?  They're actually
(val >> SECTION_SHIFT) << 2, so maybe they should be (SECTION_SHIFT -
PMD_WORDS) ?
