[PATCH] x86, mm: disable 1GB direct mapping when disabling 2MB mapping

From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Fri Jun 09 2017 - 09:58:39 EST


The kmemleak and debug_pagealloc features both disable using huge pages for
direct mapping so they can do cpa() on page level granularity in any context.
However they only do that for 2MB pages, which means 1GB pages can still be
used if the CPU supports it, unless disabled by a boot param, which is
non-obvious. Disable also 1GB pages when disabling 2MB pages.
