+ * The "classic" 32-bit implementation of the PowerPC MMU uses a hash
+ * table containing PTEs, together with a set of 16 segment registers,
+ * to define the virtual to physical address mapping.
+ *
+ * We use the hash table as an extended TLB, i.e. a cache of currently
+ * active mappings. We maintain a two-level page table tree, much
+ * like that used by the i386, for the sake of the Linux memory
+ * management code. Low-level assembler code in hash_low_32.S
+ * (procedure hash_page) is responsible for extracting ptes from the
+ * tree and putting them into the hash table when necessary, and
+ * updating the accessed and modified bits in the page table tree.
