Subject: MIPS: EVA: Add new EVA header
From: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit f85b71ceabb9d8d8a9e34b045b5c43ffde3623b3 upstream.
Generic code may need to perform certain operations when EVA is
enabled, for example, configure the segmentation registers during
boot. In order to avoid using more CONFIG_EVA ifdefs in the arch code,
such functions will be added in this header instead.
Initially this header contains a macro which will be used by generic
code later on during VPEs configuration on secondary cores.
All it does is to call the platform specific EVA init code in case
EVA is enabled.
