Currently, lookup_address() returns two things:
1. A "pte_t" (which might be a p[g4um]d_t)
2. The 'level' of the page tables where the "pte_t" was found
(returned via a pointer)
If no pte_t is found, 'level' is essentially garbage.
Always fill out the level. For NULL "pte_t"s, fill in the level where
the p*d_none() entry was found mirroring the "found" behavior.
Always filling out the level allows using lookup_address() to precisely skip
over holes when walking kernel page tables.
Add one more entry into enum pg_level to indicate the size of the VA
covered by one PGD entry in 5-level paging mode.
Update comments for lookup_address() and lookup_address_in_pgd() to
reflect changes in the interface.

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.
