Remove the SH special variants of arch_get_unmapped_area since the generic functions should now be able to handle everything. Paul, does anything in NOMMU SH need shm_align_mask? Untested because I have no SH hardware. Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel <redacted> Cc: Paul Mundt <redacted> Cc: Magnus Damm <magnus.damm@gmail.com> Cc: linux-sh@vger.kernel.org
We don't particularly need it for the nommu case, it's just using the default PAGE_SIZE case there. The primary reason for having it defined is so we can use the same cache alias checking and d-cache purging code on parts that can operate with or without the MMU enabled. So it would be nice to have the variable generally accessible regardless of CONFIG_MMU setting, rather than having to have a private definition for the nommu case.
