> why would specifically not support a _feature_ of the hardware.
Sparc64 chips support a hash table like hw assist feature for TLB

table approach instead.
I mean, your statement is totally meaningless. Just because the
hardware can do something, doesn't mean we have any reason to use that
functionality.
