SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/2 v3] MIPS: Ingenic: Fix bugs when calculate bogomips/lpj.
Hi Zhou,



Le jeu. 1 août 2019 à 8:16, Zhou Yanjie <zhouyanjie@zoho.com> a

The commit description and the code comment below seem to say two
different things. Are we enabling the BTB lookup optimization, or not?

Also, maybe change the commit title to something more meaningful, e.g.
"MIPS: ingenic: Disable broken BTB lookup optimization" or similar.

Shouldn't it be MIPS_CONF7_BTB_LOOP_DIS then?
Since the feature is disabled when the bit is set.
