This is going to clash with:

  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1047003/

Which does:

@@ -35,6 +35,13 @@  static inline int hstate_get_psize(struct hstate *hstate)
 #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE
 static inline bool gigantic_page_supported(void)
 {

+	 * We used gigantic page reservation with hypervisor assist in some case.

+	if (firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR) && !radix_enabled())

 	return true;
 }
 #endif


Not sure how to resolve it.
