You basically made the above code be run with huge pages. This may not
be what you want ... It will result in cropping the low EA bits probably
at a stage where you don't want that (it might also be a non-issue, I
just want you to double check :-)
I suppose one option would be to remove that alignment and duplicate
the PTEs when creating those "special" mappings (afaik the only user
is spufs using 64K pages to map the local store)
Cheers,
Ben.
