[PATCH v2] powerpc 8xx: Loading kernels over 8Mbytes without CONFIG_PIN_TLB

2013-12-10 Thread Christophe Leroy
Today, the only way to load kernels whose size is greater than 8Mbytes is to activate CONFIG_PIN_TLB. Otherwise, the physical memory initially mapped is limited to 8Mbytes. This patch adds the capability to select the size of initial memory between 8/16/24 Mbytes and this is regardless of whether C
