In commit 4a7b06c157a2 ("powerpc/eeh: Handle hugepages in ioremap
space") support for using hugepages in the vmalloc and ioremap areas was
enabled for radix. Unfortunately this broke EEH MMIO error checking.
Detection works by inserting a hook which checks the results of the
ioreadXX() set of functions. When a read returns a 0xFFs response we
need to check for an error which we do by mapping the (virtual) MMIO
address back to a physical address, then mapping physical address to a
PCI device via an interval tree.
When translating virt -> phys we currently assume the ioremap space is
only populated by PAGE_SIZE mappings. If a hugepage mapping is found we
emit a WARN_ON(), but otherwise handles the check as though a normal
page was found. In pathalogical cases such as copying a buffer
containing a lot of 0xFFs from BAR memory this can result in the system
not booting because it's too busy printing WARN_ON()s.
There's no real reason to assume huge pages can't be present and we're
prefectly capable of handling them, so do that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
