Subject: [Patch 002/005](memory hotplug) align memmap to page size
Date: Thu, 03 Apr 2008 14:40:18 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080403143910.D1F8.E1E9C6FF@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080403140221.D1F2.E1E9C6FF@jp.fujitsu.com>


To free memmap easier, this patch aligns it to page size.
Bootmem allocater may mix some objects in one pages.
It's not good for freeing memmap of memory hot-remove.
