Subject[PATCH 4.12 23/84] sparc64: Fix gup_huge_pmd
Date
4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nitin Gupta <nitin.m.gupta@oracle.com>


[ Upstream commit dbd2667a4fb9ce4f547982b07cd69dda127c47ea ]

The function assumes that each PMD points to head of a
huge page. This is not correct as a PMD can point to
start of any 8M region with a, say 256M, hugepage. The
fix ensures that it points to the correct head of any PMD
huge page.
