PTRS_PER_PTE is the number of PTE entries in a PTE table. On arm64 its as follows:
PAGE_SIZE PAGE_SHIFT PTRS_PER_PTE
4K 12 512
16K 14 2048
64K 16 8192
So (PTRS_PER_PTE * PAGE_SIZE) = PMD_SIZE
PMD_ORDER is ilog2(PMD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE) = ilog2(PTRS_PER_PTE)
MAX_PTRS_PER_PTE is just the maximum value that PTRS_PER_PTE will ever have,
(and its equal to PTRS_PER_PTE except for powerpc).
Pretty sure the math is correct?
