I don't clear the contpte bit here (ie the napot bit), I'm just
setting the right pfn so that the core-mm code knows exactly which
page is targeted by each pte of a contpte region (remember riscv napot
extension uses the lsb of the pte pfn to encode the size the mapping,
so all ptes of a contpte region will return the same pfn).

And from pte_pfn(), we have no way of knowing from the pte value alone
which page is targeted, we need to know its position in the page table
to "guess" the right pfn.

I think you're right here, I'll try to do that too.
