Dev Jain 650768c512 arm64: Restrict pagetable teardown to avoid false warning
Commit 9c006972c3 ("arm64: mmu: drop pXd_present() checks from
pXd_free_pYd_table()") removes the pxd_present() checks because the
caller checks pxd_present(). But, in case of vmap_try_huge_pud(), the
caller only checks pud_present(); pud_free_pmd_page() recurses on each
pmd through pmd_free_pte_page(), wherein the pmd may be none. Thus it is
possible to hit a warning in the latter, since pmd_none => !pmd_table().
Thus, add a pmd_present() check in pud_free_pmd_page().

This problem was found by code inspection.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
