arch/tile: avoid a simulator warning during bootup (401586e9) · Commits · 戴 / test

As the added comment says, we can sometimes see a coherence warning from our simulator if the "swapper_pgprot" variable on the boot cpu has not been evicted from cache by the time the other cpus come up. Force it to be evicted so we never see the warning. Signed-off-by:
