    powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE · 0f890c8d
    Suzuki Poulose 提交于
    The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based
    on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This
    approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size
    is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used
    currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method.
    
    The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the
    dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series.
    
    This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for
    platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with
    smaller TLB size).
    
    Changes since v3:
    
    * Introduced a new config, NONSTATIC_KERNEL, to denote a kernel which is
      either a RELOCATABLE or DYNAMIC_MEMSTART(Suggested by: Josh Boyer)
