*cur_progress = max(_pte - pte + 1, HPAGE_PMD_NR);

?

It's still a bit nasty, though.

Can't we just add one at the beginning of the loop and let the compiler
optimize that? ;)

I would really just keep it simple here and do a

*cur_progress = HPAGE_PMD_NR;

This stuff is hard to reason about, so I would just leave the file case 
essentially unchanged.

IIRC, it would not affect the numbers you report in the patch description?
