Hi Aneesh,

can you also specifiy the config details here. ie, 4K page size functions
are broken ?

My PPC64 config has SMP and 4K page size enabled.  I re-tested with 64K page size,
and the problem is not present.

I have added a note that this problem affects only PPC32 and PPC64 SMP kernels.
On PPC64, the problem is limited to 4K page size.

make it closer to what it was before,

pgtable_page_dtor(table);
pgtable_free_tlb(tlb, page_address(table), 0);

This is what we had before

-static inline void __pte_free_tlb(struct mmu_gather *tlb, struct page *ptepage,
-                                 unsigned long address)
-{
-       tlb_flush_pgtable(tlb, address);
-       pgtable_page_dtor(ptepage);
-       pgtable_free_tlb(tlb, page_address(ptepage), 0);
-}

Done.

Thanks,
Hong
