This is kind of similar to the ARM bug fixed in 98ed805c3. I wonder if we ought to have a per-CPU #define for "largest possible page alignment for this architecture" as well as "smallest possible" (the latter being TARGET_PAGE_MASK). This patch is a reasonable enough way to fix things though, so I'm not objecting to it. Aside: given the repetitive nature of the context hunks observable in this patch, it looks like it ought to be possible to abstract out some of the initrd/kernel load code from all those boards... thanks -- PMM
