Re: [PATCH] ppc44x: support for 256K PAGE_SIZE

If I understand you correctly, the only problem with existing binaries
is that the ELF segments are aligned to 64kB, but not necessarily to
256kB.  Couldn't you handle this as a special case, for example by
mapping the "ends" of such an unaligned segment with normal 4kB pages?

That's very hard to do if the system page size is 256k, since the
kernel has no support for mapping parts of pages.
