Subject: [PATCH] ARM: LPAE: Check the CPU support for the long descriptor format
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2012 17:04:12 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1325696652-27367-1-git-send-email-catalin.marinas@arm.com> (raw)
This patch adds a check for the presence of the LPAE feature during the
CPU initialisation. If not present, it reports an error when
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL is enabled.
