powerpc/mm: Fixup kernel read only mapping
commit 984d7a1e upstream. With commit e58e87ad ("powerpc/mm: Update _PAGE_KERNEL_RO") we started using the ppp value 0b110 to map kernel readonly. But that facility was only added as part of ISA 2.04. For earlier ISA version only supported ppp bit value for readonly mapping is 0b011. (This implies both user and kernel get mapped using the same ppp bit value for readonly mapping.). Update the code such that for earlier architecture version we use ppp value 0b011 for readonly mapping. We don't differentiate between power5+ and power5 here and apply the new ppp bits only from power6 (ISA 2.05). This keep the changes minimal. This fixes issue with PS3 spu usage reported at https://lkml.kernel.org/r/rep.1421449714.geoff@infradead.org Fixes: e58e87ad ("powerpc/mm: Update _PAGE_KERNEL_RO") Tested-by: Geoff Levand <geoff@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
