Hi Barry,

2 remaining comments - otherwise looks good. (same comments I just made in the
v4 conversation).

This is a pretty horrible hack; I'm pretty sure just summing for all *possible*
cpus should work.

Personally I think it would be cleaner to allocate statically using
ilog2(MAX_PTRS_PER_PTE) instead of PMD_ORDER.
