Subject: [PATCH v2 8/9] MIPS: Honor L2 bypass bit
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2010 20:05:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <74b5d3ba9506b2e6d885546bd6dcdaec@localhost> (raw)

On many of the newer MIPS32 cores, CP0 CONFIG2 bit 12 (L2B) indicates
that the L2 cache is disabled and therefore Linux should not attempt
to use it.
