    There is a  need to do page mappings even when all the addresses
    are aligned. This was added with CMA, which required the initial
    mappings to be set with 2 level tables.

  I did a similar kind of patch in my V1 [1].
  I should be using PMD_MASK instead of SECTION_MASK there, and
  updated it in the next version.
