[PATCH 6/8] arch/sparc64: Stop special-casing hugetlb mappings in arch_get_unmapped_area

From: Oscar Salvador

Date: Fri Jun 05 2026 - 23:51:40 EST


arch_get_unmapped_area* sets info.align_mask to make room for extra alignment,
so that is added on top of the length we request in unmapped_area{_topdown}.
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() already adds this extra padding in the 'len'
parameter, and it also masks off the address it gets to properly align it to
the huge_page_size we are using.

So, stop special-casing hugetlb in arch_get_unmapped_area* functions.

Also, there is no need to worry about align_offset because that will be
masked off back in hugetlb_get_unmapped_area().
