So this function never got used in mainline after commit 7018d467ff2d
("arm64: trans_pgd: hibernate: idmap the single page that holds the copy
page routines"). I guess it's because we merged part of v10 of this
series and in v12 you dropped the contiguous VA range in favour of a
copy of the linear map.
