Below is a patch for convert CONFIG_HAS_TLS_REG into HWCAP_TLS.

I've tested it with V6 r0p2 with no HWCAP_TLS, and V7 that has HWCAP_TLS.
I also forced CONFIG_TLS_REG_EMUL and booted on V6 r0p2, and it booted OK.

Could somebody please test this patch on a real CONFIG_TLS_REG_EMUL
system?

Also, I wonder if the change __kuser_get_tls is safe?

I changed it to assume that if 0xffff0ff0 == 0, then we have HWCAP_TLS.

Regards,

Tony

Subject: [PATCH] arm: Replace CONFIG_HAS_TLS_REG with HWCAP_TLS and check for it on V6

The TLS register is only available on V6 r1p0 and later.
Test for it and use it if available.
