ARM: 7980/1: kernel: improve error message when LPAE config doesn't m…
…atch CPU Currently, when the kernel is configured with LPAE support, but the CPU doesn't support it, the error message is fairly cryptic: Error: unrecognized/unsupported processor variant (0x561f5811). This messages is normally shown when there is an issue when comparing the processor ID (CP15 0, c0, c0) with the values/masks described in proc-v7.S. However, the same message is displayed when LPAE support is enabled in the kernel configuration, but not available in the CPU, after looking at ID_MMFR0 (CP15 0, c0, c1, 4). Having the same error message is highly misleading. This commit improves this by showing a different error message when this situation occurs: Error: Kernel with LPAE support, but CPU does not support LPAE.
