From 4b050ba7a66c3ff26cc329ea4db0e9fb2d66a064 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markos Chandras Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2014 10:51:33 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: pgtable.h: Implement the pgprot_writecombine function for MIPS Previously, the pgprot_writecombine function was simply defined as pgprot_uncached in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h. This is not optimal for cores that can actually do write-combine memory writes so define this function to take into account the core's cache coherency attribute to achieve such behavior.
