[PATCH 1/2] Revert "MIPS: kernel: {ftrace,kgdb}: Set correct address limit for cache flushes"

From: Thomas Bogendoerfer
Date: Wed Feb 10 2021 - 11:17:43 EST


This reverts commit 6ebda44f366478d1eea180d93154e7d97b591f50.

All icache flushes in this code paths are done via flush_icache_range(),
which only uses normal cache instruction. And this is the correct thing
for EVA mode, too. So no need to do set_fs(KERNEL_DS) here.
