Subject[PATCH 4.14 32/74] x86/cpu_entry_area: Prevent wraparound in setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes() on 32bit
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit f6c4fd506cb626e4346aa81688f255e593a7c5a0 upstream.

The loop which populates the CPU entry area PMDs can wrap around on 32bit
machines when the number of CPUs is small.

It worked wonderful for NR_CPUS=64 for whatever reason and the moron who
wrote that code did not bother to test it with !SMP.

Check for the wraparound to fix it.
