[PATCH] powerpc/mm/hash: Increase vmalloc space with hash translation mode

[PATCH] powerpc/mm/hash: Increase vmalloc space with hash translation mode

[Aneesh Kumar K.V]

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This patch updates the kernel none linear virtual map area size to 512TB
with 64K page size and hash translation mode. We allocate one context
for the vmalloc region and hence the max virtual area size is limited
by the context map size (512TB for 64K and 64TB for 4K page size).

This patch fixes boot failures with large amounts of system RAM where we
need large vmalloc space to handle per cpu allocation.

Applied to powerpc next, thanks.
