x86 has an option CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL to do additional checks on virt_to_phys calls. The goal is to catch users who are calling virt_to_phys on non-linear addresses immediately. This inclues callers using virt_to_phys on image addresses instead of __pa_symbol. As features such as CONFIG_VMAP_STACK get enabled for arm64, this becomes increasingly important. Add checks to catch bad virt_to_phys usage.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
