From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Different platforms supports different virtual addr size(n bits). We need to mak sure
0:77-n bits of the VA generated is forced to zero.

A compile option ? Really ? Ugh...

I actually wanted that to be done in Kconfig.cputype, but haven't found
a nice way to do it. Considering we are switching between only two
values, I was thinking an #ifdef would work.

No, we want to support all those processor types from a single kernel image.
