[PATCH] powerpc/85xx: do not force PHYS_64BIT on the P1022DS

[PATCH] powerpc/85xx: do not force PHYS_64BIT on the P1022DS

[Timur Tabi]

Kconfig option PHYS_64BIT sets the size of phys_addr_t to 64 bits, which
allows support for a 36-bit physical address space.  With this option, the
kernel can support more than 2GB of RAM, but the larger address size
impacts performance slightly.

By including "select PHYS_64BIT" in the Kconfig for a particular board,
that option is forced enabled, and it becomes impossible to create a 32-bit
kernel.  Instead, we should depend on the defconfig to enable this option.
We still build a 36-bit kernel by default, and we also allow users to build
32-bit kernels if they really want.

If you want me to apply this please also provided a 32-bit .dts for =
p1022ds.  This should be pretty trivial based on my recent .dts =
cleanups.

Ok, I'll do that.=

I think I found another bug in the 36-bit DTS.  Looking at U-Boot, I see this:

#ifdef CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT
#define CONFIG_SYS_PCIE2_MEM_BUS	0xe0000000
#define CONFIG_SYS_PCIE2_MEM_PHYS	0xc20000000ull
#else
#define CONFIG_SYS_PCIE2_MEM_BUS	0xa0000000
#define CONFIG_SYS_PCIE2_MEM_PHYS	0xa0000000
#endif

But the 36-bit DTS has this:

pci0: pcie@ffe09000 {
	reg = <0x0 0xffe09000 0 0x1000>;
	ranges = <0x2000000 0x0 0xa0000000 0xc 0x20000000 0x0 0x20000000
		  0x1000000 0x0 0x00000000 0xf 0xffc10000 0x0 0x10000>;

I don't think these match.  I think the first 'ranges' line should have 0xe0000000 instead of 0xa0000000.

I see the same problem with the other two PCI busses.  It looks like the physical address is correct, but the BUS address is wrong (it's using the 32-bit bus address instead of the 36-bit bus address).
