[PATCH 4.4 012/112] parisc: Increase KERNEL_INITIAL_SIZE for 32-bit SMP kernels

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Oct 26 2016 - 08:31:05 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>

commit 690d097c00c88fa9d93d198591e184164b1d8c20 upstream.

Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for SMP kernels to 32MB
and add a runtime check which panics early if the kernel is bigger than the
initial mapping size.

This fixes boot crashes of 32bit SMP kernels. Due to the introduction of huge
page support in kernel 4.4 and it's required initial kernel layout in memory, a
32bit SMP kernel usually got bigger (in layout, not size) than 16MB.
