Paul, Ben,
ACK since it looks like Ben has picked this up already..... but FYI I have a different version of this fix in my tree. The get_unmapped_area() shouldn't be there *at all* - we can just use the generic code if we don't have slices. So instead the whole hugetlb_get_unmapped_area function should be wrapped in PPC_MM_SLICES. This is crufty debug stuff that I missed yanking out when I pushed the patch, my apologies.
I'll just submit a followup patch to fix this.
Cheers,
B
