Ah, BUILD_BUG()... I'm not sure we can rely on optimization to avoid 
BUILD_BUG(), what if somebody compiles with all optimizations off?
So why not replace BUILD_BUG() with "1", or create a variant of 
HPAGE_PMD_NR that does that, for this case and patch 3. Seems better 
than testing PageTransHuge everywhere...
