This is a respin of the original page_offset and 64-bit page
table changes with some minor changes and a bug fix:

1) Bob's ACKs for the first 6 patches added.

2) Don't use "UL" postfix for shift counts, there is code that
    wants those to be "int", particularly printfs in mm/mm_init.c
    that use the "%d" format specifier for SECTIONS_SHIFT.

3) Adjust VA_HOLE defines to match what the new 3-level page
    tables can actually provide.

On a t4-1 machine with 64gb RAM , run following testcase as

./a.out 10000

And run echo 1000000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages couple of times. Machine becomes unusuable. This includes "fix generic hugetlb pte check return type." patch as well.Oom killers and then lockups.
Will try wothout patches very soon.
Same issue without 47-bit patches.
