Summary
mm: huge_memory: use !CONFIG_64BIT to relax huge page alignment on 32 bit machines
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm: hugememory: use !CONFIG64BIT to relax huge page alignment on 32 bit machines

Yves-Alexis Perez reported commit 4ef9ad19e176 ("mm: hugememory: don't force huge page alignment on 32 bit") didn't work for x8632 [1]. It is because x8632 uses CONFIGX8632 instead of CONFIG32BIT.

!CONFIG_64BIT should cover all 32 bit machines.
