Hi,

Most of you know already about HugeTLB
(Documentation/vm/hugetlbpage.txt).

Is there any plan of HugeTLB support for the MPC 85xx platform?
This is IMO an important feature missing in Linux for those great SoC.
Would any 4K assumption in the kernel be a showstopper for HugeTLB?

On a similar SoC, is there any status about "Huge-page support for
ppc440"?
