When we switched to big endian page table, we never updated the hugepd format such that it can work for both big endian and little endian config. This patch series update hugepd format such that it is looked at as __be64 value in big endian page table config. This patch also switch hugepd_t.pd from signed long to unsigned long. I did update the FSL hugepd_ok check to check for the top bit instead of checking > 0.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
