Suzuki,

Is CONT_SHIFT correct? I thought it should be 7? The ARM-ARM says that a contiguous 3rd level lookup is 128 entries.


Err, you are right. I tested it with 9 and I still got contiguous
mappings. May be because we anyway have 7 contiguous bits and the
kernel text is read-only. I will fix that, thanks for spotting.
