[Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH] introduce compile time option to disable optvfault.

[Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

[IA64] introduce compile time option to disable optvfault.

Debugging optvfault path is extremely difficult because
it was run with psr.ic = 0.
Make it easy to differentiate the bug in optvfault path from
other normal execution path with psr.ic = 0 by introducing compile
time option to disable optvfault.
