Greetings James and Other Maintainers of the Parisc Architecture,
I am wondering about two fix mes in init.c and how to fix them
for being const declared into actual variables. I will paste the
parts of the file for your convenience below.
Thanks,
Nick

{
unsigned long linux_gateway_page_addr;
/* FIXME: This is 'const' in order to trick the compiler
into not treating it as DP-relative data. */
extern void * const linux_gateway_page;
linux_gateway_page_addr = LINUX_GATEWAY_ADDR & PAGE_MASK;
/*
* Setup Linux Gateway page.
*
* The Linux gateway page will reside in kernel space (on virtual
* page 0), so it doesn't need to be aliased into user space.
*/
map_pages(linux_gateway_page_addr, __pa(&linux_gateway_page),
PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_GATEWAY, 1);
}

pg_dir = pgd_offset(mm,hpux_gw_page_addr);
#if PTRS_PER_PMD == 1
start_pmd = 0;
#else
start_pmd = ((hpux_gw_page_addr >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1));
#endif
start_pte = ((hpux_gw_page_addr >> PAGE_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PTE - 1));
