This patch fix a bug in the mmu code that checks whether we can use huge page mappings for host pages. The code is supposed to enable huge page mappings only if ALL DMA addresses are aligned to 2MB AND the number of pages in each DMA chunk is a modulo of the number of pages in 2MB. However, the code ignored the first requirement for the first DMA chunk. This patch fix that issue by making sure the requirement of address alignment is validated against all DMA chunks.

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.
