Hmm, documentation on ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE seems rather
scarce, but based on my guess shouldn't this be "if !EVA"?

Maciej
I do not quite know what the effect if MIPS EVA (Enhanced Virtual
Addressing)
is set, I saw that ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE should be
restricted
to archs with non-overlapping address ranges.

I wonder whether MIPS EVA will generate overlapping address ranges?
they can overlap in EVA mode.

If yes, it is better to make ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE depend
on !EVA on MIPS.
Could please add the change ?

OK, thank you, I will do it soon.
