Weird. AFAIK 4K and 64K were the common ARM64 page sizes, and 16K was the odd "think different" one that Apple uses. No mention of 16K in the Linux kernel docs:

AMD also switched to 16k(4 x 4K) down from 8 in Zen1 for there PTE Coalescing system that is effectively run length like compression of page table entries with sequential addresses in to one TLB slot.
