Subjectbug in 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 ia64/mm/init.c

Hi Folks;

Tried a kernel built with akpm's 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 patch today (using
a default sn2 .config file.) It crashes on boot with:

....
SGI SAL version 3.40
Virtual mem_map starts at 0xa0007ffe85938000
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address a0007ffeaf970000

I traced this down to a recent patch (see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=109723728329408&w=2)
which contains:

map_start = vmem_map + (__pa(start) >> PAGE_SHIFT);
map_end = vmem_map + (__pa(end) >> PAGE_SHIFT);

Merely commenting out the new lines containting GRANULEROUNDDOWN, and
GRANULEROUNDUP allowed the system to boot and me to finish the testing
I needed to do.

Looks like the above patch needs to be revised. I could test it if
necessary. Please email me directly as I'm not subscribed to lkml
or linux-ia64.
