The difference between 64K and 4K hash fault handling is confusing with respect to when we set _PAGE_HASHPTE in the linux pte. I was trying to find out whether we miss a hpte flush in any scenario because of this. ie, a pte update on a linux pte, for which we are doing a parallel hash pte insert. After looking at it closer my understanding is this won't happen because pte update also look at _PAGE_BUSY and we will wait for hash pte insert to finish before going ahead with the pte update. But to avoid further confusion keep the hash fault handler for all the page size similar to __hash_page_4k.
