Hm which arches don't set it?
Filtering through:
arm - If !ARM_LPAE
csky
hexagon
m68k
microblaze
mips - If 32-bit or !CPU_HAS_RIXI
nios2
openrisc
um
xtensa
So the usual suspects of museum pieces and museum pieces on life-support for
some reason but also... usermode linux?
Might that be the easiest to play with?
I got this list from a basic grep for 'select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL' so I'm not
sure if um imports some other arch's kconfig or there is some other way to set
it but probably this criteria is accurate...
IMO: criteria for arch removal (or in case of um - adjustment :) - 32-bit
(kernel), !ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, nommu
Of course, pipe dreams...
