powerpc/mm/radix: Add a kernel command line to disable radix
This patch adds the kernel command line disable_radix which disable the radix MMU mode even if firmware indicates radix support via ibm,pa-features device tree node. This helps in testing different MMU mode easily. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
