What that code wants to do is skip to the end of the pud, a pmd_size increase will not do that. And right below this, there's a second instance of this exact pattern.
Did I get the below right?

I guess we need "round_up(addr + PMD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE)".
What does that do if start is less than PMD_SIZE away from the next PUD_SIZE boundary?
How about: round_up(addr + 1, PUD_SIZE) ?
