1 Parameter; I changed the functions since about half the calls in the
kernel code did show that whoever wrote the code didn't understand
what the function is supposed to do.
- set_cp0_status(bits)
Set all the bits described by the bitmask bits in the status register.
- clear_cp0_status(bits)
Clear all the bits set in the bitmask argument bits in the status register.
- change_cp0_status(change, set)
Set all bits which are set in the bitmask change to the value given by
the bitmask set; all other bits stay unchanged. This is the same as
the old set_cp0_status function.
Most people want to use {set,clear}_cp0_status().
