Hm, my bad. Should not happen that I totally ignored the whole sentence
from Heiko.
Roland, please throw the previous away. Here is eventually/hopefully 
the proper one.
Thanks
Nam


This is a patch of ehca that assures 4k alignment for firmware control block
in 64k page mode, because kzalloc()'s result address might not be 4k aligned
if kernel's 64k page is enabled. Thus, we introduced wrappers called
ehca_alloc/free_fw_ctrlblock(), which use a slab cache for objects with
4k length and 4k alignment in order to alloc/free firmware control blocks
in 64k page mode. In 4k page mode those wrappers just are defines of
get_zeroed_page() and free_page().
