Subject: drm/nouveau/mmu: ALIGN_DOWN correct variable

From: Māris Nartišs <[email protected]>

commit da5e45e619b3f101420c38b3006a9ae4f3ad19b0 upstream.

Commit 7110c89bb8852ff8b0f88ce05b332b3fe22bd11e ("mmu: swap out round for ALIGN") replaced two calls to round/rounddown with ALIGN/ALIGN_DOWN, but erroneously applied ALIGN_DOWN to a different variable (addr) and left intended variable (tail) not rounded/ALIGNed.

As a result screen corruption, X lockups are observable. An example of kernel log of affected system with NV98 card where it was bisected:
