The failing address alignment to HPAGE_MASK in do_exception(), for hugetlb faults, was useless from the beginning. With 2 GB hugepage support it became wrong, but w/o further negative impact. Now it could have negative performance impact because it breaks the cacheline optimization for process_huge_page(). Therefore, remove it. Note that we still have failing address alignment by HW to PAGE_SIZE, for all page faults, not just hugetlb faults. So this patch will not fix UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS for userfaultfd handling. It will just move the failing address for hugetlb faults a bit closer to the real address, at 4K page granularity, similar to normal page faults.

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.
