The macro CONT_PTE_SHIFT actually depends on CONT_SHIFT, which has
been defined in page-def.h, based on CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_SHIFT. Lets
reflect the dependency.

Could not a similar CONT_PMD be created from a new CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PMD
config option, which would help unify CONT_PMD_SHIFT here as well ?
I was thinking of it, to have CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PMD and defined the
following macros in arch/arm64/include/asm/page-def.h:
#define CONT_PMD_SHIFT CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PMD_SHIFT
#define CONT_PMD_SIZE (_AC(1, UL) << (CONT_PMD_SHIFT + PMD_SHIFT)
#define CONT_PMD_MASK (~(CONT_PMD_SIZE - 1))
PMD_SHIFT is variable because PMD could be folded into PUD or PGD,
depending on the kernel configuration. PMD_SHIFT is declared
in arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-types.h, which isn't supposed
to be included in "page-def.h".
So the peroper way to handle this might be drop the continuous page
macros in page-def.h and introduce the following ones into pgtable-hwdef.h.
I will post v2 to do this if it sounds good to you.
#define CONT_PTE_SHIFT (CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PTE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT)
#define CONT_PMD_SHIFT (CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PMD_SHIFT + PMD_SHIFT)
Thanks,
Gavin
