Subject: [PATCH v2] ARM: LPAE: initialize cache policy correctly
Date: Mon,  5 Sep 2016 11:00:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160905180003.30638-1-stefan@agner.ch> (raw)

The cachepolicy variable gets initialized using a masked pmd
value. So far, the pmd has been masked with flags valid for the
2-page table format, but the 3-page table format requires a
different mask. On LPAE, this lead to a wrong assumption of what
initial cache policy has been used. Later a check forces the
cache policy to writealloc and prints the following warning:
Forcing write-allocate cache policy for SMP

This patch introduces a new definition PMD_SECT_CACHE_MASK for
both page table formats which masks in all cache flags in both
cases.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Agner <stefan@agner.ch>

Changes since v1:
- Introduce new definition PMD_SECT_CACHE_MASK
