powerpc/8xx: Update TLB asm so it behaves as linux mm expects.
Update the TLB asm to make proper use of _PAGE_DIRY and _PAGE_ACCESSED. Get rid of _PAGE_HWWRITE too. Pros: - I/D TLB Miss never needs to write to the linux pte. - _PAGE_ACCESSED is only set on TLB Error fixing accounting - _PAGE_DIRTY is mapped to 0x100, the changed bit, and is set directly when a page has been made dirty. - Proper RO/RW mapping of user space. - Free up 2 SW TLB bits in the linux pte(add back _PAGE_WRITETHRU ?) - kernel RO/user NA support. Cons: - A few more instructions in the TLB Miss routines. Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
