[PATCH] x86_64: When checking vmalloc mappings don't use pte_page
The PTEs can point to ioremap mappings too, and these are often outside mem_map. The NUMA hash page lookup functions cannot handle out of bounds accesses properly. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
