[IA64] align high endpoint of VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP
Assure that vmem_map's high endpoint is MAX_ORDER aligned. Not doing so violates the buddy allocator algorithm. Also anyone using mem=XXX on boot line and not aligned to MAX_ORDER requires this patch in order to satisfy buddy allocator. vmem_map always starts at pfn 0. The potentially large MAX_ORDER on ia64 (due to hugetlbfs) requires that the end of vmem_map be aligned to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. This was boot tested for: FLATMEM, FLATMEM+VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP, DISCONTIGMEM+VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP and SPARSEMEM. Signed-off-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
