This patch changes the 32-bit version of kernel_physical_mapping_init() to
return the last mapped address like the 64-bit one so that we can unify the
call-site in init_memory_mapping().

Note: I have only tested this on VirtualBox which is why I tagged the patch as
RFT.

I'm sorry if I can't track the logic correctly..

Don't we need to update last_map_addr after pages_2m++; ?

And...from the logic,


unsigned long last_map_addr = end;

seems to be always true.

So, just returning "end" is not good ?

Thanks,

OK. I tried to make it match what x86-64 does.

Yeah, I missed that part. It probably works fine because we return "end"
for 2M pages. However, to fix that, I'm not completely sure what
"last_map_addr" would be. I am thinking

last_map_addr = (addr & PMD_MASK) + PMD_SIZE;

might do the trick but I'm not that familiar with the code. Ideas?

Might be but like I said, I tried to make it match x86-64 so that we
could eventually try to unify those bits as well.
