Nicholas Piggin ec11408a16 mm/large system hash: use vmalloc for size > MAX_ORDER when !hashdist
The kernel currently clamps large system hashes to MAX_ORDER when hashdist
is not set, which is rather arbitrary.

vmalloc space is limited on 32-bit machines, but this shouldn't result in
much more used because of small physical memory limiting system hash
sizes.

Include "vmalloc" or "linear" in the kernel log message.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
