Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix swap and page migration for LPAE
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 17:01:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1343318468-10412-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)

Hello,

These two patches fix swapping and page migration for LPAE-enabled
kernels. Without these changes, we corrupt the offset stored in the file
pte when updating the page tables and may truncate the pfn when storing
it into a swp_entry_t.

I'll CC stable on the final patches.

All feedback welcome,

Will
