Hi Alexander,

For what is worth, today's linux-next (20141204) does not boot on arm64
if I select CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES. ext4 filesystem fails to mount with:

No filesystem could mount root, tried:  ext3 ext2 ext4 vfat fuseblk

Same filesystem (no fsck inbetween) but with a 4K pages kernel boots fine.

Best regards,
Liviu
