Currently, perf allocates an array of page pointers which is limited in
size by MAX_PAGE_ORDER. That in turn limits the maximum Intel PT buffer
size to 2GiB. Should that limitation be lifted, the Intel PT driver can
support larger sizes, except for one calculation in
pt_topa_entry_for_page(), which is limited to 32-bits.
Fix pt_topa_entry_for_page() address calculation by adding a cast.

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 reStructuredText 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.
