[RFC PATCH 4/9] powerpc: mm: Only check for _PAGE_PRESENT in set_pte/pmd functions

From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <hidden>
Date: 2013-10-22 11:41:31
Also in: linux-mm
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <redacted>

We want to make sure we don't use these function when updating a pte
or pmd entry that have a valid hpte entry, because these functions
don't invalidate them. So limit the check to _PAGE_PRESENT bit.
Numafault core changes use these functions for updating _PAGE_NUMA bits.
That should be ok because when _PAGE_NUMA is set we can be sure that
hpte entries are not present.
