[RFC PATCH 01/15] arch: x86: remove MAX_ORDER exceeding SECTION_SIZE check for 32bit vdso.

From: Zi Yan <hidden>
Date: 2021-08-05 19:03:48
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: memory management - core, memory management - mglru (multi-gen lru), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), x86 entry code, x86 vdso · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Andy Lutomirski

From: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>

For x86_64, 32bit vdso is compiled for compatibility reason and 32bit
SECTION_SIZE_BITS value is used during compilation. It causes
compilation time error when MAX_ORDER is increased in the 64bit
environment even if it is OK for 64bit SECTION_SIZE_BITS. Remove the
check during 32bit vdso compilation. The check still exists during the
compilation of other kernel components.
