Hello Pratyush, >Patch 1/4 fixes page_offset calculation, so that it is correctly calculated >on KASLR enabled kernel as well. >Patch 2/4 simplifies VA to PA translation.

I have very limited idea about x86, so unable >to do that as of now. > >Changes since V1: >* A bug in patch 1/4 fixed >* Patch log of 2/4 improved to include more number of trials The most of concern was the performance degradation, but there is no degradation in the additional benchmark. So I decide to merge this patch set into v1.6.1, thanks for your work.
