Subject: [GIT PULL] arm64 fix for 4.5-rc7
Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2016 20:06:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160304200625.GE7886@arm.com> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Please pull this arm64 fix for -rc7. Without it, our struct page array
can overflow the vmemmap region on systems with a large PHYS_OFFSET.
Nothing else on the radar at the moment, so hopefully that's it for 4.5
from us.
Cheers,
Will
