<content type='text'>
Rather than each platform providing its own function to adjust the
zone sizes, use the new ARM_DMA_ZONE_SIZE definition to perform this
adjustment.  This ensures that the actual DMA zone size and the
ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD/MAX_DMA_ADDRESS definitions are consistent with
each other, and moves this complexity out of the platform code.

<title>ARM: Replace platform definition of ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD/MAX_DMA_ADDRESS</title>

<content type='text'>
The values of ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD and MAX_DMA_ADDRESS are related; one is
the physical/bus address, the other is the virtual address.  Both need
to be kept in step, so rather than having platforms define both, allow
them to define a single macro which sets both of these macros
appropraitely.

<title>ARM: 6675/1: use phys_addr_t instead of unsigned long in conversion code</title>

The unsigned long datatype is not sufficient for mapping physical addresses
&gt;= 4GB.

This patch ensures that the address conversion code in asm/memory.h casts
to the correct type when handling physical addresses. The internal v2p
macros only deal with lowmem addresses, so these do not need to be modified.

MSM's memory is aligned to 2MB, which is more than we can do with our
existing method as we're limited to the upper 8 bits.  Extend this by
using two instructions to 16 bits, automatically selected when MSM is
enabled.

<title>ARM: P2V: introduce phys_to_virt/virt_to_phys runtime patching</title>

This idea came from Nicolas, Eric Miao produced an initial version,
which was then rewritten into this.

Patch the physical to virtual translations at runtime.  As we modify
the code, this makes it incompatible with XIP kernels, but allows us
to achieve this with minimal loss of performance.

As many translations are of the form:

	physical = virtual + (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET)
	virtual = physical - (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET)

we generate an 'add' instruction for __virt_to_phys(), and a 'sub'
instruction for __phys_to_virt().  We calculate at run time (PHYS_OFFSET
- PAGE_OFFSET) by comparing the address prior to MMU initialization with
where it should be once the MMU has been initialized, and place this
constant into the above add/sub instructions.

Once we have (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET), we can calculate the real
PHYS_OFFSET as PAGE_OFFSET is a build-time constant, and save this for
the C-mode PHYS_OFFSET variable definition to use.

At present, we are unable to support Realview with Sparsemem enabled
as this uses a complex mapping function, and MSM as this requires a
constant which will not fit in our math instruction.

Add a module version magic string for this feature to prevent
incompatible modules being loaded.

This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at
0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but
XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while
still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the
unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places
in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to
compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it
has to be nailed down in one place.
