Subject: [PATCH 3.2 04/61] powerpc/mm: Fix check of multiple 16G pages
 from device tree

3.2.96-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Rui Teng <rui.teng@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 23493c121912a39f0262e0dbeb236e1d39efa4d5 upstream.

The offset of hugepage block will not be 16G, if the expected
page is more than one. Calculate the totol size instead of the
hardcode value.

Fixes: 4792adbac9eb ("powerpc: Don't use a 16G page if beyond mem= limits")
