This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sparc64: Increase MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS to 53. to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sparc64-increase-max_phys_address_bits-to-53.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Tue Oct 28 11:13:19 CST 2014 From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2014 21:49:29 -0700 Subject: sparc64: Increase MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS to 53. From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Make sure, at compile time, that the kernel can properly support whatever MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS is defined to. On M7 chips, use a max_phys_bits value of 49. Based upon a patch by Bob Picco. Signed-off-by: David S.
