SubjectRe: [PATCH] [11/18] Fix alignment bug in bootmem allocator
> node_boot_start is not page aligned?

It is, but it is not necessarily GB aligned and without this
change sometimes alloc_bootmem when requesting GB alignment
doesn't return GB aligned memory. This was a nasty problem
that took some time to track down.
