Maciej W. Rozycki 0e39d8dd87 MIPS: Always record SEGBITS in cpu_data.vmbits
commit 8374c2cb83 upstream.

With a 32-bit kernel running on 64-bit MIPS hardware the hardcoded value
of `cpu_vmbits' only records the size of compatibility useg and does not
reflect the size of native xuseg or the complete range of values allowed
in the VPN2 field of TLB entries.

An upcoming change will need the actual VPN2 value range permitted even
in 32-bit kernel configurations, so always include the `vmbits' member
in `struct cpuinfo_mips' and probe for SEGBITS when running on 64-bit
hardware and resorting to the currently hardcoded value of 31 on 32-bit
processors.  No functional change for users of `cpu_vmbits'.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
