I have a couple of comments that are actually mostly related to
pre-existing bugs, but that affect code that are touched by this patch.
Perhaps this is most cleanly addressed by a follow-up patch. Up to you
to decide.
Since these problems are pre-existing,

Since if we didn't get the PTL here, the pud might be unstable in which
case we want to retry:
if (!ptl) {
if (pud_trans_unstable(pudp))
walk->action = ACTION_AGAIN;
return 0;

We have the lock now, so READ_ONCE could probably be a simple dereference.

pud_trans_huge_lock() successful return means pud_none() is always false.

Can't see !pud_present happening either after a succesful
pud_trans_huge_lock().

Here we should really have
if (pud_trans_unstable(pud))
