The nested_dtlb_miss handler currently does not handle fault from hugetlb address correctly. It walks the page table assuming PAGE_SIZE. Thus when taking a fault triggered from hugetlb address, it would not calculate the pgd/pmd/pte address correctly and thus result an incorrect invocation of ia64_do_page_fault(). In there, kernel will signal SIGBUS and application dies (The faulting address is perfectly legal and we have a valid pte for the corresponding user hugetlb address as well). This patch fix the described kernel bug. Since nested_dtlb_miss is a rare event and a slow path anyway, I'm making the change without #ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE for code readability.
