2017-01-03	MIPS: Export {copy, clear}_page functions alongside their definitions	Paul Burton	1	-0/+3
	Now that EXPORT_SYMBOL can be used from assembly source, move the EXPORT_SYMBOL invocations for the copy_page & clear_page functions to be alongside their definitions. With this change there are no longer any symbols exported from mips_ksyms.c so remove the file.

2012-07-19	MIPS: Refactor 'clear_page' and 'copy_page' functions.	Steven J. Hill	1	-0/+50
	Remove usage of the '__attribute__((alias("...")))' hack that aliased to integer arrays containing micro-assembled instructions. This hack breaks when building a microMIPS kernel. It also makes the code much easier to understand. [ralf@linux-mips.org: Added back export of the clear_page and copy_page symbols so certain modules will work again. Also fixed build with CONFIG_SIBYTE_DMA_PAGEOPS enabled.] Signed-off-by: Steven J.
