STD_MMU is for all powerpc cpus with a non-BookE MMU. That includes
all the 64-bit parts from IBM to date, pasemi's parts, and 32-bit
parts from IBM & Freescale like the 6xx, 7xx, 7xxx, e600 e300, etc.
You cannot set this for 44x, because it is a BookE part.
BTW, there's no real relationship between STD_MMU and SMP. It was
just a convenient way to restrict the SMP config option in the
kernel, since all the Linux configs that currently support SMP are
STD_MMU. We will have BookE configs in the future that do support
SMP, at which point arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig.cputype will be
changed to allow SMP to be set for those configs.
You can't enable SMP on 44x right now. It's not supported.
Cheers,
B
