commit 3141bba98af302e2a7c5e2a19203bb8a40b6aa63
Author: Dave Anderson <anderson@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Oct 10 09:15:42 2018 -0400
Fix the calculation of the vmalloc memory region size to account for
Linux 4.17 commit a7412546d8cb5ad578805060b4006f2a021b5868, titled
"x86/mm: Adjust vmalloc base and size at boot-time", which increases
the region's size from 32TB to 1280TB when 5-level pagetables are
enabled. Also presume that virtual addresses above the end of the
vmalloc space up to the beginning of vmemmap space are translatable
via 5-level page tables. Without the patch, mapped virtual addresses
may fail translation in whatever command accesses them, with errors
indicating "seek error: kernel virtual address: <mapped-address>
type: <type-string>"
