Subject: [PATCH] mm: Fix atomic_t overflow in vm
Date: Wed, 14 May 2008 22:33:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080514213302.5631.54560.stgit@core> (raw)

From: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>

The atomic_t type is 32bit but a 64bit system can have more than 2^32
pages of virtual address space available. Without this we overflow on
ludicrously large mappings
