6dc995a3da ARM: fix PAGE_KERNEL
PAGE_KERNEL should not be executable; any area marked executable can
be prefetched into the instruction cache.  We don't want vmalloc areas
to be read in this way.

4b46d64165 ARM: ensure initial page tables are setup for SMP systems
Mapping the same memory using two different attributes (memory
type, shareability, cacheability) is unpredictable.  During boot,
we encounter a situation when we're updating the kernel's page
tables which can lead to dirty cache lines existing in the cache
which are subsequently missed.  This causes stack corruption,
and therefore a crash.

Therefore, ensure that the shared and cacheability settings
matches the configuration that will be used later; this together
with the restriction in early_cachepolicy() ensures that we won't
create a mismatch during boot.

e616c59140 ARM: Don't allow highmem on SMP platforms without h/w TLB ops broadcast
We suffer an unfortunate combination of "features" which makes highmem
support on platforms without hardware TLB maintainence broadcast difficult:

- we need kmap_high_get() support for DMA cache coherence
- this requires kmap_high() to take a spinlock with IRQs disabled
- kmap_high() occasionally calls flush_all_zero_pkmaps() to clear
  out old mappings
- flush_all_zero_pkmaps() calls flush_tlb_kernel_range(), which
  on s/w IPI'd systems eventually calls smp_call_function_many()
- smp_call_function_many() must not be called with IRQs disabled:

dde5828f56 ARM: Fix broken highmem support
Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased
vmalloc area.  However, none of this has any effect on the memory
layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped.
Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be
registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available
virtual mapping space.

The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning
of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size
(see commit 60296c71f6 for details on
this).

We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory,
while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem.

Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory
are not supported.  This is not a huge limitation since systems
relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory
with large holes.

[ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9eca
  and be available  in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up
  of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage
  escaped testing somehow as well. -- Nico ]

  3 | c		d	c	 1 - n - 1	  _vmap() / _vunmap()	s
  4 | c		d,a	c	 1 - n - 1	_vmalloc()/ _vfree()	n*

    'iova':	device iommu virtual address
    'da':	alias of 'iova'
    'pa':	physical address
    'va':	mpu virtual address

    'c':	contiguous memory area
    'd':	dicontiguous memory area
    'a':	anonymous memory allocation
    '()':	optional feature

    'n':	a normal page(4KB) size is used.
    's':	multiple iommu superpage(16MB, 1MB, 64KB, 4KB) size is used.

d73cd42893 [ARM] kmap support
The kmap virtual area borrows a 2MB range at the top of the 16MB area
below PAGE_OFFSET currently reserved for kernel modules and/or the
XIP kernel.  This 2MB corresponds to the range covered by 2 consecutive
second-level page tables, or a single pmd entry as seen by the Linux
page table abstraction.  Because XIP kernels are unlikely to be seen
on systems needing highmem support, there shouldn't be any shortage of
VM space for modules (14 MB for modules is still way more than twice the
typical usage).

Because the virtual mapping of highmem pages can go away at any moment
after kunmap() is called on them, we need to bypass the delayed cache
flushing provided by flush_dcache_page() in that case.

The atomic kmap versions are based on fixmaps, and
__cpuc_flush_dcache_page() is used directly in that case.

e4707dd3e9 [ARM] 5422/1: ARM: MMU: add a Non-cacheable Normal executable memory type
This patch adds a Non-cacheable Normal ARM executable memory type,
MT_MEMORY_NONCACHED.

On OMAP3, this is used for rapid dynamic voltage/frequency scaling in
the VDD2 voltage domain. OMAP3's SDRAM controller (SDRC) is in the
VDD2 voltage domain, and its clock frequency must change along with
voltage. The SDRC clock change code cannot run from SDRAM itself,
since SDRAM accesses are paused during the clock change. So the
current implementation of the DVFS code executes from OMAP on-chip
SRAM, aka "OCM RAM."

If the OCM RAM pages are marked as Cacheable, the ARM cache controller
will attempt to flush dirty cache lines to the SDRC, so it can fill
those lines with OCM RAM instruction code. The problem is that the
SDRC is paused during DVFS, and so any SDRAM access causes the ARM MPU
subsystem to hang.

TI's original solution to this problem was to mark the OCM RAM
sections as Strongly Ordered memory, thus preventing caching. This is
overkill: since the memory is marked as non-bufferable, OCM RAM writes
become needlessly slow. The idea of "Strongly Ordered SRAM" is also
conceptually disturbing. Previous LAKML list discussion is here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg54312.html

This memory type MT_MEMORY_NONCACHED is used for OCM RAM by a future
patch.

The IOP321 manual says:

  The user designates the memory region containing the OCCDR as

  This guarantees that all load/stores to the OCCDR are only of

On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END.
Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END.
Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr()
can work properly.  Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to
reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the
vmalloc space.

6c5da7aced [ARM] mm: move vmalloc= parsing to arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
There's no point scattering this around the tree, the parsing
of the parameter might as well live beside the code which uses
it.  That also means we can make vmalloc_reserve a static
variable.

1ad77a876d [ARM] 5241/1: provide ioremap_wc()
This patch provides an ARM implementation of ioremap_wc().

We use different page table attributes depending on which CPU we
are running on:

- Non-XScale ARMv5 and earlier systems: The ARMv5 ARM documents four
  possible mapping types (CB=00/01/10/11).  We can't use any of the
  cached memory types (CB=10/11), since that breaks coherency with
  peripheral devices.  Both CB=00 and CB=01 are suitable for _wc, and
  CB=01 (Uncached/Buffered) allows the hardware more freedom than
  CB=00, so we'll use that.

  (The ARMv5 ARM seems to suggest that CB=01 is allowed to delay stores
  but isn't allowed to merge them, but there is no other mapping type
  we can use that allows the hardware to delay and merge stores, so
  we'll go with CB=01.)

- XScale v1/v2 (ARMv5): same as the ARMv5 case above, with the slight
  difference that on these platforms, CB=01 actually _does_ allow
  merging stores.  (If you want noncoalescing bufferable behavior
  on Xscale v1/v2, you need to use XCB=101.)

- Xscale v3 (ARMv5) and ARMv6+: on these systems, we use TEXCB=00100
  mappings (Inner/Outer Uncacheable in xsc3 parlance, Uncached Normal
  in ARMv6 parlance).

  The ARMv6 ARM explicitly says that any accesses to Normal memory can
  be merged, which makes Normal memory more suitable for _wc mappings
  than Device or Strongly Ordered memory, as the latter two mapping
  types are guaranteed to maintain transaction number, size and order.
  We use the Uncached variety of Normal mappings for the same reason
  that we can't use C=1 mappings on ARMv5.

  The xsc3 Architecture Specification documents TEXCB=00100 as being
  Uncacheable and allowing coalescing of writes, which is also just
  what we need.

60296c71f6 [ARM] prevent crashing when too much RAM installed
This patch will truncate and/or ignore memory banks if their kernel
direct mappings would (partially) overlap with the vmalloc area or
the mappings between the vmalloc area and the address space top, to
prevent crashing during early boot if there happens to be more RAM
installed than we are expecting.

Since the start of the vmalloc area is not at a fixed address (but
the vmalloc end address is, via the per-platform VMALLOC_END define),
a default area of 128M is reserved for vmalloc mappings, which can
be shrunk or enlarged by passing an appropriate vmalloc= command line
option as it is done on x86.

On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe000000,
two 512M RAM banks and vmalloc=128M (the default), this patch gives:

	Truncating RAM at 20000000-3fffffff to -35ffffff (vmalloc region overlap).
	Memory: 512MB 352MB = 864MB total

On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe800000,
two 256M RAM banks and vmalloc=768M, this patch gives:

	Truncating RAM at 00000000-0fffffff to -0e7fffff (vmalloc region overlap).
	Ignoring RAM at 10000000-1fffffff (vmalloc region overlap).

72a7fe3967 Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.

This patch:

Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.

Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

11179d8ca2 [ARM] 4497/1: Only allow safe cache configurations on ARMv6 and later
Currently, Linux doesn't generate correct page tables for ARMv6 and
later cores if the cache policy is different from the default one (it
may lead to strongly ordered or shared device mappings). This patch
disallows cache policies other than writeback and the
CPU_[ID]CACHE_DISABLE options only affect the CP15 system control
register rather than the page tables.

7b9c7b4d07 [ARM] Fix non-page aligned boot time mappings
AT91SAM9260 stopped booting with the recent changes to MM
initialisation - it was asking for a non-aligned virtual address
which caused loops to be non-terminal.  Fix this by rounding
virtual addresses down, but remember to include the offset in
the length, and round the length up to the following page.

This means that asking for a mapping of 4K starting at 2K into
a page maps two pages as one would expect.
