This addr is converted to an invalid phys address,
looking the code below:
if (in_first_chunk) {
if (!is_vmalloc_addr(addr))
return __pa(addr);
else
return page_to_phys(vmalloc_to_page(addr));
} else
return page_to_phys(pcpu_addr_to_page(addr));
I dont understand per cpu allocation well, if addr is not in first chunk
then it should be in vmalloc area?
Tejun, do you have any idea about this?
