[PATCH 04/10] vmalloc: add @align to vm_area_register_early()

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Mon Feb 23 2009 - 22:13:32 EST


Impact: allow larger alignment for early vmalloc area allocation

Some early vmalloc users might want larger alignment, for example, for
custom large page mapping. Add @align to vm_area_register_early().
While at it, drop docbook comment on non-existent @size.
