Commit Message

On MIPS system which has rixi hardware bit, page access bit is not
set in pgrot. For memory reading, there will be one page fault to
allocate physical page; however valid bit is not set, there will
be the second fast tlb-miss fault handling to set valid/access bit.

This patch set page access/valid bit with pgrot if there is reading
access privilege. It will reduce one tlb-miss handling for memory
reading access.

The valid/access bit will be cleared in order to track memory
accessing activity. If the page is accessed, tlb-miss fast handling
will set valid/access bit, pte_sw_mkyoung is not necessary in slow
page fault path. This patch removes pte_sw_mkyoung function which
is defined as empty function except MIPS system.

Thanks for tracking it down.

Could you please make the patch tittle more clear?
"Some" looks confuse to me, "systems with RIXI" would be better.

Only affects mips, so cheerily
