Jayachandran, could you please confirm/deny the following: Netlogic XLR is a MIPS64 R1 system. You are running a 32-bit kernel. You are using 64-bit physical addresses. You are not enabling RI/XI. The commit that caused the regression was "[PATCH 1/4] MIPS: Replace _PAGE_READ with _PAGE_NO_READ" (not 2/4, 3/4, or 4/4). Do you have a log showing the failure, or any other details of what happened? Thanks.
