This patch, in a variety of forms, has been around since beginning 2016 as e756c2bb07, ending up in present form 0aa6c7df60 (kernel 4.4.13 bump) and carried forward ever since. There have been a number of MIPS kernel memory handling changes since, including VDSO fixes that meant openwrt patches have been dropped with no apparent fallout. Simple tests (ntfs-3g) on a HIGHMEM 512MB mt7621 device have not turned up data corruption issues which would otherwise be expected. Similarly running on other MIPS based devices for the past 2 months hasn't turned up anything obvious to retain this out of tree patch. With thanks to Rosen Penev for testing on the known 'highmem' device and Felix Fietkau for testing advice. Not putting acked-by as it's my fault if it breaks :-) Signed-off-by: Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant <ldir@darbyshire-bryant.me.uk>

-----------------------------------------------------
This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.
You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.
1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/
3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
Sunshine!
