sparc64: kern_addr_valid regression
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1688505 [ Upstream commit adfae8a5 ] I encountered this bug when using /proc/kcore to examine the kernel. Plus a coworker inquired about debugging tools. We computed pa but did not use it during the maximum physical address bits test. Instead we used the identity mapped virtual address which will always fail this test. I believe the defect came in here: [bpicco@zareason linus.git]$ git describe --contains bb4e6e85 v3.18-rc1~87^2~4 . Signed-off-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
