[PATCH] powerpc/8xx: CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC requires ITLBmiss for kernel addresses

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Wed Feb 03 2016 - 18:02:06 EST


When CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is activated, the initial TLB mapping gets
flushed to track accesses to wrong areas. Therefore, kernel addresses
will also generate ITLB misses.
