Subject[PATCH v4 0/2] powerpc32: handle inverted _PAGE_RW bit outside of TLB handlers
Date
Some powerpc like the 8xx don't have a RW bit in PTE bits but a RO (Read Only) bit.
This patch implements the handling of a _PAGE_RO flag to be used in place of _PAGE_RW

Patchset:
1) powerpc32: adds handling of _PAGE_RO
2) powerpc/8xx: use _PAGE_RO instead of _PAGE_RW

All changes have been successfully tested on MPC885

v2 is a complete rework compared to v1
v3 takes into account comments from Scott on v2
v4 simplified pte_update()
