[ Upstream commit bfb1d2b9021c21891427acc86eb848ccedeb274e ]

pud_bad() is currently defined in terms of pud_table(). Although for some
configs, pud_table() is hard-coded to true i.e. when using 64K base pages
or when page table levels are less than 3.

pud_bad() is intended to check that the pud is configured correctly. Hence
let's open-code the same check that the full version of pud_table() uses
into pud_bad(). Then it always performs the check regardless of the config.
