[Fwd: [PATCH] PPC64: large INITRD causes kernel not to boot]

Please find attached my revised patch. Olaf's suggestion of using _end 
removes the calculation making things smaller, neater and less complex.

We could add an explicit claim of _start through _end. Given all of the 
broken firmware I'm seeing the claim_base cannot be set less than _end - 
and I prefer to round it up to MB boundary.

Comments?
