Subject: s390/mm: correct return value of pmd_pfn
From: Martin Schwidefsky <[email protected]>
commit 7cded342c09f633666e71ee1ce048f218a9c5836 upstream.
Git commit 152125b7a882df36a55a8eadbea6d0edf1461ee7 "s390/mm: implement dirty bits for large segment table entries" broke the pmd_pfn function, it changed the return value from 'unsigned long' to 'int'. This breaks all machine configurations with memory above the 8TB line.
