[PATCH v5 10/22] MIPS: Avoid unnecessary reservation of exception space

From: Gregory CLEMENT
Date: Tue Dec 12 2023 - 11:36:10 EST


From: Jiaxun Yang <jiaxun.yang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Nowadays we allocate exception base from memblock for r2_r6,
so we don't need to reverse exception space at the start of
the memory for r2_r6 processors.

For older processors the reservation is moved to traps_init
where we have knowledge of exact size we need. We also add
a sanity check to detect possible overlap with kernel.
