+ * The page indices of the page table pages encountered while
+ * translating virtual address va are defined as follows:
+ * - for the page table page (last level),
+ * ptepindex = pmap_pde_pindex(va) = va >> PDRSHIFT,
+ * in other words, it is just the index of the PDE.
+ * - for the page directory page,
+ * ptepindex = NUPDE (number of userland PD entries) +
+ * (pmap_pde_index(va) >> NPDEPGSHIFT)
+ * i.e. index of PDPE is put after the last index of PDE,
+ * - for the page directory pointer page,
+ * ptepindex = NUPDE + NUPDPE + (pmap_pde_index(va) >> (NPDEPGSHIFT +
+ * NPML4EPGSHIFT),
+ * i.e. index of pml4e is put after the last index of PDPE.
+ * In other words, it is sequential number of the corresponding paging entry
+ * in the order where all entries of the same height are put together, then
+ * heights are put from deepest to root.
