[patch 6/7] powerpc: implement pte_special

From: npiggin
Date: Thu Jun 05 2008 - 05:59:58 EST


Implement PTE_SPECIAL for powerpc. At the moment I only have a spare bit for
the 4k pages config, but Ben has freed up another one for 64k pages that I
can use, so this patch should include that before it goes upstream.
