Subject: [PATCH] Fix for Freescale ppc cores: major revision detection
Date: Sat, 9 Feb 2008 18:47:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080209174748.GA3245@tuba> (raw)
Ppc cores by Freescale are using the configuration field instead of the
major revision field for their major revision number. Those field
definitions come from include/asm-powerpc/reg.h.
Look at the pdf below and you will see that PVR_MAJ() does a wrong shift
for ppc cores by Freescale. This patch fixes it.
