Subject: [PATCH] mm: negative left shift count when PAGE_SHIFT > 20
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2013 00:56:12 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374166572-7988-1-git-send-email-uulinux@gmail.com> (raw)
When PAGE_SHIFT > 20, the result of "20 - PAGE_SHIFT" is negative. The
calculating here will generate an unexpected result. In addition, if
PAGE_SHIFT > 20, The memory size represented by numentries was already
integral multiple of 1MB.
