Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] 4xx: Use virtual PVR value to init FPU on arch/ppc 440EP
Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2007 11:29:56 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071116112956.0f1ca5b1@weaponx> (raw)
This fixes arch/ppc 440EP platforms to setup the FPU correctly. A virtual
PVR is used, as 440GR platforms share an identical hardware PVR value and do
not have an FPU.
