Subject: [PATCH 3.13 191/259] ARM: fix alignment of keystone page table fixup

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

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

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@....linux.org.uk>

commit 823a19cd3b91b0729d7417f1848413846be61712 upstream.

If init_mm.brk is not section aligned, the LPAE fixup code will miss
updating the final PMD.  Fix this by aligning map_end.

Fixes: a77e0c7b2774 ("ARM: mm: Recreate kernel mappings in early_paging_init()")
