Re: [PATCH v2] powerpc/fsl-booke: declare tlbcam_index for use in c file

I'll pick this up, but wondering about this patch vs Trent's changes  
to remove this.

How is KVM on fsl-booke using this value?

Subject: [PATCH v2] powerpc/fsl-booke: declare tlbcam_index
for use in c file

KVM on E500 platform currently utilize TLB1 entries without
bothering host,
that is using unused TLB1 entries.

So, KVM needs to read tlbcam_index to know exactly
which TLB1 entry is unused by host.

[v2]
Remove num_tlbcam_entries declare and read from SPRN_TLB1CFG
in KVM instead.
