Enable CONFIG_MIPS_AUTO_PFN_OFFSET for the generic platform, allowing it to avoid wasted book-keeping for pages with addresses lower than the physical base address of memory. This has a minimal impact on kernel text size, with 64r6el_defconfig gaining 0.1% in size as reported by bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 4/1 grow/shrink: 345/13 up/down: 9017/-392 (8625) Function old new delta pcpu_setup_first_chunk 1444 1780 +336 pcpu_alloc_first_chunk 864 1136 +272 start_kernel 1064 1288 +224 initcall_blacklist 224 372 +148 try_fill_recv 2088 2184 +96 ... Total: Before=8457273, After=8465898, chg +0.10% The gain for systems with large offsets to physical memory & the ability to continue using generic kernels on such systems seems well worth this small cost.
