Subject: [PATCH 097/241] ttm: Clear the ttm page allocated from high memory zone correctly

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

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

From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@...el.com>

commit ac207ed2471150e06af0afc76e4becc701fa2733 upstream.

The TTM page can be allocated from high memory. In such case it is
wrong to use the page_address(page) as the virtual address for the high memory
page.
