Subjectclear_page, copy_page address align question?
Hello,

When I tested zram in ppc64, I got random corruption.
With investigation, it seems clear_page corrupted the memory.
I passed 64K kmalloced(kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE)) address to clear_page
and turned on slub debug so address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE.
Is it a valid usecase that non-PAGE_SIZE aligned address is
used for clear_page in ppc64?

As well, copy_page have same rule, too?

Anyway, when I changed clear_page to memset, it seems the problem
is gone.

Thanks.
