2010-04-12MIPS: Loongson-2F: Flush the branch target history in BTB and RASWu Zhangjin
As per chapter 15 "Errata: Issue of Out-of-order in loongson"[1] to work around the Loongson 2F erratum we need to do: "When switching from user mode to kernel mode, you should flush the branch target history such as BTB and RAS."

2009-12-17MIPS: Put PGD in C0_CONTEXT for 64-bit R2 processors.David Daney
Processors that support the mips64r2 ISA can in four instructions convert a shifted PGD pointer stored in the upper bits of c0_context into a usable pointer. By doing this we save a memory load and associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers. Since the upper bits of c0_context were holding the CPU number, we move this to the upper bits of c0_xcontext which doesn't have enough bits to hold the PGD pointer, but has plenty for the CPU number.
