Ritesh Harjani (IBM) f6573f4049 powerpc/64s/hash: Restrict stress_hpt_struct memblock region to within RMA limit 
[ Upstream commit 17b45ccf09 ]

When HV=0 & IR/DR=0, the Hash MMU is said to be in Virtual Real
Addressing Mode during early boot. During this, we should ensure that
memory region allocations for stress_hpt_struct should happen from
within RMA region as otherwise the boot might get stuck while doing
memset of this region.

History behind why do we have RMA region limitation is better explained
in these 2 patches [1] & [2]. This patch ensures that memset to
stress_hpt_struct during early boot does not cross ppc64_rma_size
boundary.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
