Vineet Gupta f734a31083 ARCv2: mm: micro-optimize region flush generated code
DC_CTRL.RGN_OP is 3 bits wide, however only 1 bit is used in current
programming model (0: flush, 1: invalidate)

The current code targetting 3 bits leads to additional 8 byte AND
operation which can be elided given that only 1 bit is ever set by
software and/or looked at by hardware

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
