[PATCH 6/6] MIPS: Limit fixrange_init() to the FIXMAP region

From: Kevin Cernekee
Date: Thu Jan 06 2011 - 02:46:20 EST


fixrange_init() allocates page tables for all addresses higher than
FIXADDR_TOP. On processors that override the default FIXADDR_TOP
address of 0xfffe_0000, this can consume up to 4 pages (1 page per 4MB)
for pgd's that are never used.
