I don't understand how VM_PFNMAP is set for hugetlbfs related vma.
I think they are exclusive, meaning the flag is never set for
hugetlbfs vma. If it's true, VM_PFNMAP needn't be checked on hugetlbfs
vma and the VM_BUG_ON() becomes unnecessary.

There is "switch(...)" fallback mechanism in user_mem_abort(). PUD_SIZE/PMD_SIZE
can be downgraded accordingly if the addresses fails in the alignment check
by fault_supports_stage2_huge_mapping(). I think it would make user_mem_abort()
simplified if the logic can be moved to get_vma_page_shift().

Another question if we need the check from fault_supports_stage2_huge_mapping()
if VM_PFNMAP area is going to be covered by block mapping. If so, the "switch(...)"
fallback mechanism needs to be part of get_vma_page_shift().
