Aneesh Kumar K.V 7f18825174 powerpc/mm/iommu: allow large IOMMU page size only for hugetlb backing
THP pages can get split during different code paths.  An incremented
reference count does imply we will not split the compound page.  But the
pmd entry can be converted to level 4 pte entries.  Keep the code
simpler by allowing large IOMMU page size only if the guest ram is
backed by hugetlb pages.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
