pgtable_64.c doesn't exist in v4.9 for x86.
So I guess it's not correct to remove __force_order from pagetable.c?
Yes, the second __force_order thing was added by
08529078d8d9 ("x86/boot/compressed/64: Detect and handle 5-level paging at boot-time")
which is 4.14.
Greg, pls drop this patch from the 4.9 lineup.
Now dropped, thanks.
