    powerpc/mm: Drop WIMG in favour of new constants · 30bda41a
    Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
    PowerISA 3.0 introduces two pte bits with the below meaning for radix:
      00 -> Normal Memory
      01 -> Strong Access Order (SAO)
      10 -> Non idempotent I/O (Cache inhibited and guarded)
      11 -> Tolerant I/O (Cache inhibited)
    
    We drop the existing WIMG bits in the Linux page table in favour of the
    above constants. We loose _PAGE_WRITETHRU with this conversion. We only
    use writethru via pgprot_cached_wthru() which is used by
    fbdev/controlfb.c which is Apple control display and also PPC32.
    
    With respect to _PAGE_COHERENCE, we have been marking hpte always
    coherent for some time now. htab_convert_pte_flags() always added
    HPTE_R_M.
    
    NOTE: KVM changes need closer review.
