[PATCH resend] arm:extend the reserved memory for initrd to be page aligned

From: Wang, Yalin <hidden>

Also in: linux-arm-msm, linux-mm, lkml

They were so close ;)

I can see three patches but none of them exactly right:

8157/1 - wrong diff format
8159/1 - correct format, does not have my ack (you can take this one if
	 you want)
8162/1 - got my ack this time but with the wrong diff format again

Maybe a pull request is a better idea.
I am really confused, 
I read this web:
http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/info.php
it said use diff -urN to generate patch like this:

diff -Nru linux.orig/lib/string.c linux/lib/string.c

but I see other developers use git format-patch to generate patch and
submit to the patch system.
Git format-patch format can also be accepted by the patch system correctly ?
If yes, I think this web should update,
Use git format-patch to generate patch is more convenient than use diff -urN 

Thanks
