I like this very much.  And I agree with each of your decisions above,
which you described very well in the commit message.  Not everybody
likes __weak-ness, but hugetlb.c is already using that technique,
and I think you're right to extend it to these functions.

What a delight to be able to see at a grep-glance that only ia64
and powerpc use the follow_huge_addr() method!

I agree that the metag situation is odd: I suppose almost nothing ends
up using follow_huge_pmd() apart from move_pages(), so it barely matters
at present; but odd-ones-out present a risk, and it will prevent your
hugetlb migration from being extended to metag.

Let's Cc James Hogan, who I hope will be able to say that metag can
just use the default implementation of follow_huge_pmd().

It would be good to Cc the other affected architecture maintainers
next time, but I don't expect this will pose any problem for them.

The only problem I have with this patch is its position in the series:
it's a cleanup, and so not marked for stable; but it's 1/6, and so at
least one of the fixes for stable depends on it.

It might be possible to shift it to the end of the series, and fix
only the x86 hugetlb migration for stable (since you have disabled it
on all other architectures for now); but I expect that would get too
messy, and you'll end up preferring to keep this as 1/6 and mark it
for stable too.
