Re: [PATCH 1/2] mm: Fix struct page layout on 32-bit systems

32-bit architectures which expect 8-byte alignment for 8-byte integers
and need 64-bit DMA addresses (arc, arm, mips, ppc) had their struct
page inadvertently expanded in 2019.  When the dma_addr_t was added,
it forced the alignment of the union to 8 bytes, which inserted a 4 byte
gap between 'flags' and the union.

Fix this by storing the dma_addr_t in one or two adjacent unsigned longs.
This restores the alignment to that of an unsigned long, and also fixes a
potential problem where (on a big endian platform), the bit used to denote
PageTail could inadvertently get set, and a racing get_user_pages_fast()
could dereference a bogus compound_head().

Fixes: c25fff7171be ("mm: add dma_addr_t to struct page")
