As reported by Keith Mannthey, there are problems in populate_memnodemap()

The bug was that the compute_hash_shift() was returning 31, with incorrect initialization of memnodemap[]

To correct the bug, we must use (1UL << shift) instead of (1 << shift) to avoid an integer overflow, and we must check that shift < 64 to avoid an infinite loop.


It's already merged, no need to resubmit. P.S.: It would be easier
to merge if you didn't use attachments.

Hi Andi

AFAIK I posted the patch on linux-kernel only once... and once privatly to Keith because it seems he missed the linux-kernel post.
I'm confused by your answer.
