Re: [PATCH 00/14] Backport 8xx TLB to 2.4

Hi Joakim,

This is a backport from 2.6 which I did to overcome 8xx CPU
bugs. 8xx does not update the DAR register when taking a TLB
error caused by dcbX and icbi insns which makes it very
tricky to use these insns. Also the dcbst wrongly sets the
the store bit when faulting into DTLB error.
A few more bugs very found during development.

I know 2.4 is in strict maintenance mode and 8xx is obsolete
but as it is still in use I wanted 8xx to age with grace.

Thank you. I must admit I was hoping those patches would come in
for a last release before the end of the year :-)

Unless there is any objection from anyone, I'll merge them when
kernel.org is back online.

Cheers,
Willy
