While looking at code generated for code patching, I saw that pte_clear generated:
2d8: 38 a0 00 00 li r5,0 2dc: 38 e0 10 00 li r7,4096 2e0: 39 00 20 00 li r8,8192 2e4: 39 40 30 00 li r10,12288 2e8: 90 a9 00 00 stw r5,0(r9) 2ec: 90 e9 00 04 stw r7,4(r9) 2f0: 91 09 00 08 stw r8,8(r9) 2f4: 91 49 00 0c stw r10,12(r9)
With 16k pages, only the first entry is used by the kernel, so no need to adapt the address of other entries. Only duplicate the first entry for hardware.
Now it is:
2cc: 39 40 00 00 li r10,0 2d0: 91 49 00 00 stw r10,0(r9) 2d4: 91 49 00 04 stw r10,4(r9) 2d8: 91 49 00 08 stw r10,8(r9) 2dc: 91 49 00 0c stw r10,12(r9)
