powerpc: Make pmd_bad() and pud_bad() checks non-trivial

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Paulus, please apply.

At present, the powerpc pmd_bad() and pud_bad() macros return false
unless the fiven pmd or pud is zero.  This patch makes these tests
more thorough, checking if the given pmd or pud looks like a plausible
pte page or pmd page pointer respectively.  This can result in helpful
error messages when messing with the pagetable code.
