Subject: [PATCH 03/18] powerpc/64: Always enable radix support for 64-bit Book 3S kernels
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 20:07:11 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1484212046-29591-4-git-send-email-paulus@ozlabs.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1484212046-29591-1-git-send-email-paulus@ozlabs.org>

This removes the ability for the user to choose whether or not to
include support for the radix MMU in kernels built to run on 64-bit
Book 3S machines.  Excluding radix support saves only about 25kiB
of text and 13kiB of data, a total of little over half a page.
Having the option expands the space of option combinations that
need to be tested, which is an ongoing burden on developers.
Given that the space savings are small, let's remove the option.
