    powerpc: dump as a single line areas mapping a single physical page. · cabe8138

    When using KASAN, there are parts of the shadow area where all
    pages are mapped to the kasan_early_shadow_page. It is pointless
    to dump one line for each of those pages (in the example below there
    are 7168 entries pointing to the same physical page).
    
    ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables
     ...

    This patch modifies linux table dump to dump as a single line areas
    where all addresses points to the same physical page. That physical
    address is put inside [] to show that all virt pages points to the
    same phys page.
