For ex: ppc64 needs to track the base page size of a segment and it is copied from mm_context_t to PACA on each context switch. If we know that application has not used an address range above 128TB we only need to copy details about 128TB range to PACA. This will help in improving context switch performance by avoiding larger copy operation. Cc: Kirill A.
