[PATCH 03/11] powerpc32: Use kmem_cache memory for PGDIR

2015-04-19 Thread Christophe Leroy
When pages are not 4K, PGDIR table is allocated with kmalloc(). In order to optimise TLB handlers, aligned memory is needed. kmalloc() doesn't provide aligned memory blocks, so lets use a kmem_cache pool instead. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable-ppc32.h | 4
