Subject: [patch 6/7] powerpc: implement pte_special
Date: Thu, 05 Jun 2008 19:43:06 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080605094826.023234000@nick.local0.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080605094300.295184000@nick.local0.net>

[-- Attachment #1: powerpc-implement-pte_special.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2929 bytes --]

Implement PTE_SPECIAL for powerpc. At the moment I only have a spare bit for
the 4k pages config, but Ben has freed up another one for 64k pages that I
can use, so this patch should include that before it goes upstream.
