The default CM target field in the GCR_BASE register is encoded with 0 meaning memory & 1 being reserved. However the definitions we use for those bits effectively get these two values backwards - likely because they were copied from the definitions for the CM regions where the target is encoded differently. This results in use setting up GCR_BASE with the reserved target value by default, rather than targeting memory as intended. Although we currently seem to get away with this it's not a great idea to rely upon. Fix this by changing our macros to match the documentated target values. The incorrect encoding became used as of commit9f98f3dd0c("MIPS: Add generic CM probe & access code") in the Linux v3.15 cycle, and was likely carried forwards from older but unused code introduced by commit39b8d52542("[MIPS] Add support for MIPS CMP platform.") in the v2.6.26 cycle.

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.
