When the page tables are wrapped from 4 levels to 2 levels, the new MM code requires PMD_SHIFT to match PUD_SHIFT, which must also match PGDIR_SHIFT. If PMD_SHIFT is smaller than PUD_SHIFT, we risk freeing a still-in-use table (== page) which can then get re-used for the slab cache. Testing and inspection shows that there isn't any real benefit from keeping PMD_SHIFT set to 20. In addition, add some comments concerning the granularity of alloc_init_section() and fix a missing PMD assignment in the rebooting code. Somehow we managed to get away with that, although it is actually wrong. Maybe I've just been lucky until now. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk>
