[PATCH] ppc44x: support for 256K PAGE_SIZE

Thu Oct 18 21:00:32 EST 2007


 It has turned out that my mailer had corrupted my previous message (thanks
Wolfgang Denk for pointing this). So if you'd like to apply the patch without the
conflicts please use the version of the patch in this mail.

 The following patch adds support for 256KB PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x-based boards. 
The applications to be run on the kernel with 256KB PAGE_SIZE have to be 
built using the modified version of binutils, where the MAXPAGESIZE 
definition is set to 0x40000 (as opposite to standard 0x10000).
