- * The hardware supports concatenation of up to 16 tables at stage2 entry level

+ * The hardware supports concatenation of up to 16 tables at stage2 entry
+ * level and we use the feature whenever possible, which means we resolve 4
+ * additional bits of address at the entry level.
*
- * Now, the minimum number of bits resolved at any level is (PAGE_SHIFT - 3).
- * On arm64, the smallest PAGE_SIZE supported is 4k, which means
- * (PAGE_SHIFT - 3) > 4 holds for all page sizes.
- * This implies, the total number of page table levels at stage2 expected
- * by the hardware is actually the number of levels required for (IPA_SHIFT - 4)
- * in normal translations(e.g, stage1), since we cannot have another level in
- * the range (IPA_SHIFT, IPA_SHIFT - 4).
+ * This implies, the total number of page table levels required for
+ * IPA_SHIFT at stage2 expected by the hardware can be calculated using
+ * the same logic used for the (non-collapsable) stage1 page tables but for
+ * (IPA_SHIFT - 4).
