mm: add statistics for PUD level pagetable
Recently, we found that cross-die access to pagetable pages on ARM64
machines can cause performance fluctuations in our business. Currently,
there are no PMU events available to track this situation on our ARM64
machines, so accurate pagetable accounting can help to analyze this issue,
but now the PUD level pagetable accounting is missed.
So introduce pagetable_pud_ctor/dtor() to help to get accurate PUD
pagetable accounting, as well as converting the architectures which use
generic PUD pagetable allocation to add corresponding PUD pagetable
accounting. Moreover this patch will mark the PUD level pagetable with
PG_table flag, which will help to do sanity validation in
unpoison_memory().
On my testing machine, I can see more pagetables statistics after the patch
with page-types tool:
Before patch:

After patch:
