In the x86 32bit PAE CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y case while holding the mmap_sem for reading, cmpxchg8b cannot be used to read pmd contents under Xen. So instead of dealing only with "consistent" pmdvals in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() (which would be conceptually simpler) we let pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() deal with pmdvals where the low 32bit and high 32bit could be inconsistent (to avoid having to use cmpxchg8b). The only guarantee we get from pmd_read_atomic is that if the low part of the pmd was found null, the high part will be null too (so the pmd will be considered unstable). And if the low part of the pmd is found "stable" later, then it means the whole pmd was read atomically (because after a pmd is stable, neither MADV_DONTNEED nor page faults can alter it anymore, and we read the high part after the low part). In the 32bit PAE x86 case, it is enough to read the low part of the pmdval atomically to declare the pmd as "stable" and that's true for THP and no THP, furthermore in the THP case we also have a barrier() that will prevent any inconsistent pmdvals to be cached by a later re-read of the *pmd.
