Re[2]: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc: Make context bits depend on virtual addr size.

From: Phileas Fogg <hidden>

Ok. How about the below patch. This is based on the suggestion from
Paulus. I still have to take care of few comments in the code.

We now split the proto-vsid range differently.
User:   0 to [2^(CONTEXT_BITS) - 4  + 2^(USER_ESID_BITS)]
kernel: [2^(CONTEXT_BITS) - 4 + 2^(USER_ESID_BITS)] to 2^(VSID_BITS) - 1

Phileas and Geoff,

Can we check whether this fix the PS3 boot hang ?
 Tested the new patch with Linux 3.8.0-rc7, it seems to be working well.
