Subject: powerpc/cell: Fix cell iommu after it_page_shift changes
From: Michael Ellerman <[email protected]>
commit 7261b956b276aa97fbf60d00f1d7717d2ea6ee78 upstream.
The patch to add it_page_shift incorrectly changed the increment of uaddr to use it_page_shift, rather then (1 << it_page_shift).
This broke booting on at least some Cell blades, as the iommu was basically non-functional.
