Mike, thanks for this clean-up!

Your patch is functional OK. I successfully tested it with a 32-bit
kernel in qemu, and with a 64-bit kernel on a physical box.
For 64-bit you missed to adapt the parisc hugetlb code, so maybe you
can add the patch below to your series?

Other than that (and the lexical corrections which other already mentioned):
Acked-by: Helge Deller <deller@....de>

Thanks!
Helge
