Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 145/293] sparc64: Fix gup_huge_pmd

From: Nitin Gupta <nitin.m.gupta@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit dbd2667a4fb9ce4f547982b07cd69dda127c47ea ]

The function assumes that each PMD points to head of a
huge page. This is not correct as a PMD can point to
start of any 8M region with a, say 256M, hugepage. The
fix ensures that it points to the correct head of any PMD
huge page.
