The 4*PAGE_SIZE on ARM is an architecture specific oddity, I believe
to work around aliasing caches on ARMv6. As no other architecture does
this, we're probably better off not duplicating it for aarch64-ilp32
and just use sys_shmat as your v6 patch does.

If you feel ARMv6 fix for caches will come soon, just ignore it.
Otherwise, please pull it because compat_sys_shmat is broken now
for 64K pages.

Sounds good. Will, do you want to take this for the arm64 tree.

Will or Catalin, does this look ok to you?
Looks ok on the face of it (although I haven't tried compat w/ 64k pages).

I'll take it via the arm64 tree with your ack.

Cheers,

Will
