Hi Ralf,

 From your description it sounds like not all R2 CPUs have c0_ebase registers?

I don't know how to check for c0_ebase from the pre-processor, the test below
assumes they all do.

How about something like:

#if (defined(CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_MIPS32_R1) && \
                 VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS == CKSEG0) || \
         ((defined(CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_MIPS64_R1) || defined(CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_MIPS64_R2)) && \
                 VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS == XKPHYS)
	.fill 0x400
#endif
