[PATCH] MIPS: tlb-r4k: panic if the MMU doesn't support PAGE_SIZE

From: Paul Burton
Date: Mon Jul 13 2015 - 12:13:25 EST


After writing the appropriate mask to the cop0 PageMask register, read
the register back & check it matches what we want. If it doesn't then
the MMU does not support the page size the kernel is configured for and
we're better off bailing than continuing to do odd things with TLB
exceptions.
