[PATCH] ppc32: Suppress bogus info in /proc/ppc_htab on 64-bit cpus
In the ppc32 kernel, we have a /proc/ppc_htab file that trawls through the MMU hash table and prints various statistics on it such as percent occupancy. However, the hash table entry format is different on 64-bit cpus (POWER3, G5) which the ppc32 kernel does support (in 32-bit mode). This patch disables the scanning of the MMU hash table and printing of the statistics that we get from it on 64-bit cpus. Since the statistics are only for interest, and the ppc32 kernel is being used less and less on 64-bit cpus now that the ppc64 kernel is in reasonable shape, I didn't think it worth while to add code to deal with the 64-bit HPTE format.
