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.
