This patch fixes a bug in the PPC440 pagetable attributes that breaks  
 swap support.  It also adds some notes on the PPC440 attribute fields.

hm, that looks pretty serious, but it affects all ppc's, yes?

Just PPC440. I originally organized the attributes incorrectly.
 

Is this needed for 2.6.13?   Are you super-sure it's safe?

This should go into 2.6.13.  I doublechecked it by inspection and
ran numerous tests. It's only existed this long (years) due to the
fact that few people run a disk-based PPC440 system. I would have
sent it up sooner except I wanted to be very sure of my testing
since I don't always trust my own inspection. :)
