What you are suggesting here is a effectively a revert of commit
790b57a, which would break other implementations.

Can you please explain the actual issue? I'm failing to see how you end
up in an infinite loop here (the system page size and the ITS base
granule should be completely unrelated...).

Or has it anything to do with Minghuan Lian's patch
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/16/36), which looks more correct (if still
massively under-documented)?

Thanks,
