The "(insn &amp; 0x01800000) != 0x01800000" test matches 'restore'
but that is a legitimate place to see the %lo() part of a 32-bit
symbol relocation, particularly in tail calls.

To handle the large physical addresses, just make a simple wrapper
around remap_pfn_range() like MIPS does.

also for search_exception_tables [which arguably could be living somewhere
more appropriate than module.h] - eventually causing this:

Building an allyesconfig doesn't reveal a hidden need

The LEON MMU Model (SRMMU) does not implement MMu Table probing
in hardware, instead it is implemented in software. However the
software implementation does not return the PTE as it should which
always results in INVALID entires and the PROM mappings are not
inherited as they should during startup. The following patch
removes the masking of the PTE.

<title>sparc64: Force the execute bit in OpenFirmware's translation entries.</title>

<id>f4142cba4e4065a416e78ade905bea29ff3930e6</id>
<content type='text'>
In the OF 'translations' property, the template TTEs in the mappings
never specify the executable bit.  This is the case even though some
of these mappings are for OF's code segment.

Therefore, we need to force the execute bit on in every mapping.

This problem can only really trigger on Niagara/sun4v machines and the
history behind this is a little complicated.

Previous to sun4v, the sun4u TTE entries lacked a hardware execute
permission bit.  So OF didn't have to ever worry about setting
anything to handle executable pages.  Any valid TTE loaded into the
I-TLB would be respected by the chip.

But sun4v Niagara chips have a real hardware enforced executable bit
in their TTEs.  So it has to be set or else the I-TLB throws an
instruction access exception with type code 6 (protection violation).

We've been extremely fortunate to not get bitten by this in the past.

The best I can tell is that the OF's mappings for it's executable code
were mapped using permanent locked mappings on sun4v in the past.
Therefore, the fact that we didn't have the exec bit set in the OF
translations we would use did not matter in practice.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for helping me track this down.
