Subject: [PATCH 4.5 57/88] libnvdimm, pfn: fix memmap reservation sizing

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

commit 658922e57b847bb7112aa67f6441b6bbc6554412 upstream.

When configuring a pfn-device instance to allocate the memmap array it
needs to account for the fact that vmemmap_populate_hugepages()
allocates struct page blocks in HPAGE_SIZE chunks.  We need to align the
reserved area size to 2MB otherwise arch_add_memory() runs out of memory
while establishing the memmap:
