With commit: 0034d395f89d ("powerpc/mm/hash64: Map all the kernel
regions in the same 0xc range"), we now split the 64TB address range
into 4 contexts each of 16TB. That implies we can do only 16TB linear
mapping.
On some systems, eg. Power9, memory attached to nodes > 0 will appear
above 16TB in the linear mapping. This resulted in kernel crash when
we boot such systems in hash translation mode with 4K PAGE_SIZE.
This patch updates the kernel mapping such that we now start supporting upto
61TB of memory with 4K. The kernel mapping now looks like below 4K PAGE_SIZE
and hash translation.
vmalloc start = 0xc0003d0000000000
IO start = 0xc0003e0000000000
vmemmap start = 0xc0003f0000000000
Our MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS for 4K is still 64TB even though we can only map 61TB.
We prevent bolt mapping anything outside 61TB range by checking against
H_VMALLOC_START.

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.
