From f033d659c3b931d8b2a16625155e20304e173c9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2012 02:52:56 +0000 Subject: powerpc/mm: Update VSID allocation documentation This update the proto-VSID and VSID scramble related information to be more generic by using names instead of current values.
