[RFC v2][PATCH 34/35] powerpc use generic ptemap.h

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



powerpc is a bid of an oddball here.  It seems to have CONFIG_HIGHPTE
behavior at all times when compiled as 32-bit.  There's even an
#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHPTE in arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c, but there's no
trace of HIGHPTE in Kconfig anywhere.

This gives ppc32 an explicit HIGHPTE in Kconfig so that we can use
the #ifdef in asm-generic/ptemap.h and let ppc use the generic code
with x86 and frv.

It also removes the HIGHPTE #ifdef on ppc32 since it will be on
unconditionally.
