(That was a 'break before make' fix, the affected code comes from:
82869ac57b5d (""arm64: kernel: Add support for hibernate/suspend-to-disk))
But, it works in all one circumstances its used: we know all the top bits will be zero.
I agree its by accident and we should fix it.
I don't think we should send it to stable.
Please drop the fixes tag, with that:
