Hi all,

I find when both enable CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y and CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G_OPT=y,
which mean use PAGE_OFFSET=0xB0000000 with ARM_LPE, the kernel will boot fail.
it stop after uncompressed:
--------
  Starting kernel ...

  Uart base = 0x20001000
  watchdog reg = 0x20013000
  dtb addr = 0x80840308
  Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

--------

Meanwhile, I also tried to use CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G/CONFIG_VMSPLIT_1G with ARM_LPAE,
it can boot successfully.

Is that a limitation of ARM_LPAE, which I not do get any info about this from spec?
If it do have the limitation, then we should be:
--------



Any comment is more than welcome!

Thanks
Yisheng Xie
