This patch maps vmalloc, IO and vmemap regions in the 0xc address range
instead of the current 0xd and 0xf range. This brings the mapping closer
to radix translation mode.
With hash 64K page size each of this region is 512TB whereas with 4K config
we are limited by the max page table range of 64TB and hence there regions
are of 16TB size.
The kernel mapping is now:
On 4K hash
kernel_region_map_size = 16TB
kernel vmalloc start = 0xc000100000000000
kernel IO start = 0xc000200000000000
kernel vmemmap start = 0xc000300000000000
64K hash, 64K radix and 4k radix:
kernel_region_map_size = 512TB
kernel vmalloc start = 0xc008000000000000
kernel IO start = 0xc00a000000000000
kernel vmemmap start = 0xc00c000000000000

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
