Just noticed... And I'll be travelling for a while so with no much time to look at it. Your changes to use the PTE page free batch via RCU on ppc32 broke CONFIG_HIGHPTE for hash32... You rely on passing a page_address() of the PTE page down to the freeing layer. That doesn't work for highmem pages. That needs to be changes to a struct page * on 32-bit (not on 64-bit where we are using slabs though) Cheers, Ben.
