Thank you for your vaddr_to_offset_ia64() patch.
We are currently investigating ia64 discontigmem, and
your patch will be our help.
I think your patch has problems when translating virtual address into
physical address for ia64 discontigmem if layer 3 (or layer 4)
paging is necessary.

In Japan, we have a vacation on April 28th - May 6th.
Sorry, we will reply again after the vacation.


Thanks
