Subject: [PATCH v8 02/14] mm: x86: add CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG
Some architectures support the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries,
e.g., x86 sets the accessed bit in a non-leaf PMD entry when using it
as part of linear address translation [1]. Page table walkers that
clear the accessed bit may use this capability to reduce their search
space.
Note that:
1. Although an inline function is preferable, this capability is added
as a configuration option for consistency with the existing macros.
2. Due to the little interest in other varieties, this capability was
only tested on Intel and AMD CPUs.
