On e6500, in the case of cpu hotplug, either thread in one core may be the first thread initilzing the TLB1. The subsequent threads must not setup it again. The code is derived from the comment of Scott Wood.

Then we can make it noop on ppc32.Please don't. It accomplishes nothing other than adding an obstacle to supporting this on ppc32.The idea is make it noop since the function defined in header file and some core parts include it like: arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c arch/powerpc/kernel/setup-common.c
What does that have to do with making it a no-op on 32-bit? I understand ifdeffing on CONFIG_BOOKE due to the build issue, but not CONFIG_PPC64. -Scott
