well it's not my call to take or reject this patch, but I already
indicated it might be better to disable writecombine on the CPU
detection side (or do you have other devices where writecombining
works ?). Something like below will disbale it for all loongson64 CPUs.
If you now find out where it works and where it doesn't, you can even
reduce it to the required minium of affected CPUs.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea. [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
