Hi, thanks for the patch!

The whole MIPS page table system is supposed to be host page-size
agnostic. In practice, we don’t regularly test on non-4K platforms so
this may well be broken in subtle or not-so-subtle (as in this instance)
ways. There has been at least some testing with 64K host pages – the
configs from TI for the AM62-SK dev boards have that as the default (or
at least they did when we started working with them).

I’m loathed to accept this patch without at least investigating how deep
the problems go; the true fix here should be to fix the problems causing
this build error rather than just gating off non-4K hosts.

I’ll have a dig this afternoon to see what I can find. Did you try
anything to fix this yourself? It would be nice to not duplicate effort
on this if you have.

Cheers,
Matt
