Subject: [PATCH 3.16 239/328] pstore: Fix incorrect persistent ram buffer
 mapping

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

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

From: Bin Yang <bin.yang@...el.com>

commit 831b624df1b420c8f9281ed1307a8db23afb72df upstream.

persistent_ram_vmap() returns the page start vaddr.
persistent_ram_iomap() supports non-page-aligned mapping.

persistent_ram_buffer_map() always adds offset-in-page to the vaddr
returned from these two functions, which causes incorrect mapping of
non-page-aligned persistent ram buffer.

By default ftrace_size is 4096 and max_ftrace_cnt is nr_cpu_ids. Without
this patch, the zone_sz in ramoops_init_przs() is 4096/nr_cpu_ids which
might not be page aligned. If the offset-in-page > 2048, the vaddr will be
in next page. If the next page is not mapped, it will cause kernel panic:
