Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] mm/hugetlb: support FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE

Hi Guillaume and s390 folks,

This looks to be one of the first uses of pud_soft_dirty() in a generic
part of the tree from what I can tell, which shows that s390 is lacking
it despite setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY:

  $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=s390 CROSS_COMPILE=s390-linux- mrproper defconfig mm/gup.o
  mm/gup.c: In function 'can_follow_write_pud':
  mm/gup.c:665:48: error: implicit declaration of function 'pud_soft_dirty'; did you mean 'pmd_soft_dirty'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
    665 |         return !vma_soft_dirty_enabled(vma) || pud_soft_dirty(pud);
        |                                                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        |                                                pmd_soft_dirty

Is this expected?

Cheers,
Nathan
