We don't use __x86_64__ in the kernel. This should be CONFIG_X86.

These #ifdefs are hideous, and repeated.
I'd rather have no 32-bit support than expose us to this ugliness.
Worst case, the 32-bit non-PAE folks (i.e. almost nobody in the world)
can just live with seeing "2M" when the mappings are really 4M. Or, you
*could* name these after the page table levels:
direct_map_pmd_splits
direct_map_pud_splits
or the level from the bottom where the split occurred:
direct_map_level2_splits
direct_map_level3_splits
That has the bonus of being usable on other architectures.
Oh, and 1G splits aren't possible on non-PAE 32-bit. There are only 2
levels: 4M and 4k, which would make what you have above:

I don't think there's ever a 1G/4M case.
