Re: [PATCH v4 36/36] mm: Align THP mappings for non-DAX

[William Kucharski]

Thinking about this, if the intent is to make THP usable for any
greater than PAGESIZE page size, this routine should probably go back
to taking a size or perhaps order parameter so it could be called to
align addresses accordingly rather than hard code PMD_SIZE.
