target/ppc: improve performance of large BAT invalidations
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Performing a complete flush is ~ 100 times faster than flushing
256MiB of 4KiB pages. Set a limit of 1024 pages and perform a complete
flush afterwards.

This patch significantly speeds up AIX 5.1 and NetBSD-ofppc.
