*	MIPS: Two-level pagetables for 64-bit kernels with 64KB pages.	David Daney	2010-02-27	1	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	For 64-bit kernels with 64KB pages and two level page tables, there are 42 bits worth of virtual address space This is larger than the 40 bits of virtual address space obtained with the default 4KB Page size and three levels, so there are no draw backs for using two level tables with this configuration.

*	mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()	Benjamin Herrenschmidt	2009-07-27	1	-3/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works. Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted, we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions. The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.
