Subject: [SPARC64]: Align address in huge_pte_alloc().
X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~36838^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9df1dab1df58ef20ef7df9b8f39d86cf5d2d1949;p=kernel%2Fkernel-generic.git

[SPARC64]: Align address in huge_pte_alloc().

We are about to fill in all HPAGE_SIZE's worth
of PAGE_SIZE ptes, so we have to give the first
pte in that set else we scribble over random memory
when we fill in the ptes.
