Yes.

#define pfn_pte(pfn,prot) mk_pte_phys(pfn << PAGE_SHIFT, prot)
but you should better replace mk_pte_phys completely.
All of this is ignoring the fact that phys_base has to be subtracted
from any physical address before applying as an index to mem_map on
sparc64.
I have the correct fixes for sparc64 in my tree and I'll merge it
all to Linus.
