Don't think so. "pdtlb,l" is available on all PA 2.0 machines. It's not 64-bit specific.
There is some difference in implementation between PA 1.1 and 2.0. 64-bit register
values are used in the PA 2.0 implementation.
That's right.
But if you build a 32-bit kernel and choose to optimize for PA8x00 CPUs,
the CONFIG_PA20 is set and the local-purge is used unconditionally.
That breaks e.g. when running such a kernel in qemu (which is 32-bit only).
See my just-posted patch.
