3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Will Deacon <[email protected]> commit e38a517578d6c0f764b0d0f6e26dcdf9f70c69d7 upstream. For 2-level page tables, PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS describes the offset between Linux PTEs and hardware PTEs. On LPAE, there is no distinction (since we have 64-bit descriptors with plenty of space) so PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS should be 0. Unfortunately, it is wrongly defined as PTRS_PER_PTE, meaning that current pte table flushing is off by a page. Luckily, all current LPAE implementations are SMP, so the hardware walker can snoop L1. This patch fixes the broken definition.
