If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dexuan Cui commit d1cd1210834649ce1ca6bafe5ac25d2f40331343 upstream. pte_pfn() returns a PFN of long (32 bits in 32-PAE), so "long << PAGE_SHIFT" will overflow for PFNs above 4GB. Due to this issue, some Linux 32-PAE distros, running as guests on Hyper-V, with 5GB memory assigned, can't load the netvsc driver successfully and hence the synthetic network device can't work (we can use the kernel parameter mem=3000M to work around the issue). Cast pte_pfn() to phys_addr_t before shifting. Fixes: "commit d76565344512: x86, mm: Create slow_virt_to_phys()" Signed-off-by: Dexuan Cui Cc: K. Y.
