This reverts commit 2f7dc6027522499582a520807cb9ffda589de47e.

The above commit breaks the mapping type for Device memory because
pgprot_default already contains a Normal memory type. pgprot_default is
also not initialised early enough for earlyprintk resulting in an
inconsistent memory mapping with 64K PAGE_SIZE configuration.

Write-combine and cacheable mappings use Normal memory on arm64. On SMP
systems, the pte needs the shareability bit which is set in
pgprot_default. Use this for defining PROT_DEFAULT used by ioremap_wc
and ioremap_cache (Device memory is shareable by default, does not need
additional attributes).

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "This has tons of fixes and two major features which are concentrated
  around the Xen SWIOTLB library.

  The short &lt;blurb&gt; is that the tracing facility (just one function) has
  been added to SWIOTLB to make it easier to track I/O progress.
  Additionally under Xen and ARM (32 &amp; 64) the Xen-SWIOTLB driver
  "is used to translate physical to machine and machine to physical
  addresses of foreign[guest] pages for DMA operations" (Stefano) when
  booting under hardware without proper IOMMU.

  There are also bug-fixes, cleanups, compile warning fixes, etc.

  The commit times for some of the commits is a bit fresh - that is b/c
  we wanted to make sure we have the Ack's from the ARM folks - which
  with the string of back-to-back conferences took a bit of time.  Rest
  assured - the code has been stewing in #linux-next for some time.

  Features:
   - SWIOTLB has tracing added when doing bounce buffer.
   - Xen ARM/ARM64 can use Xen-SWIOTLB.  This work allows Linux to
     safely program real devices for DMA operations when running as a
     guest on Xen on ARM, without IOMMU support. [*1]
   - xen_raw_printk works with PVHVM guests if needed.

  Bug-fixes:
   - Make memory ballooning work under HVM with large MMIO region.
   - Inform hypervisor of MCFG regions found in ACPI DSDT.
   - Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED.
   - Remove deprecated __cpuinit.

  [*1]:
  "On arm and arm64 all Xen guests, including dom0, run with second
   stage translation enabled.  As a consequence when dom0 programs a
   device for a DMA operation is going to use (pseudo) physical
   addresses instead machine addresses.  This work introduces two trees
   to track physical to machine and machine to physical mappings of
   foreign pages.  Local pages are assumed mapped 1:1 (physical address
   == machine address).  It enables the SWIOTLB-Xen driver on ARM and
   ARM64, so that Linux can translate physical addresses to machine
   addresses for dma operations when necessary.  " (Stefano)"

Some drivers (ACPI notably) use ioremap_cache() to map an area which could
either be outside of kernel RAM or in an already mapped reserved area of
RAM. To avoid aliases with different caching attributes, ioremap() does
not allow RAM to be remapped. But for ioremap_cache(), the existing kernel
mapping may be used.

<title>arm64: Add simple earlyprintk support</title>

<id>2475ff9d2c6ea3bbfed55c4635426c371f9ad327</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for "earlyprintk=" parameter on the kernel
command line. The format is:

  earlyprintk=&lt;name&gt;[,&lt;addr&gt;][,&lt;options&gt;]

where &lt;name&gt; is the name of the (UART) device, e.g. "pl011", &lt;addr&gt; is
the I/O address. The &lt;options&gt; aren't currently used.

The mapping of the earlyprintk device is done very early during kernel
boot and there are restrictions on which functions it can call. A
special early_io_map() function is added which creates the mapping from
the pre-defined EARLY_IOBASE to the device I/O address passed via the
kernel parameter. The pgd entry corresponding to EARLY_IOBASE is
pre-populated in head.S during kernel boot.

Only PL011 is currently supported and it is assumed that the interface
is already initialised by the boot loader before the kernel is started.

On AArch64, the meaning of the XN bit has changed to UXN (user). The PXN
(privileged) bit must be set to prevent kernel execution. Without the
PXN bit set, the CPU may speculatively access device memory. This patch
ensures that all the mappings that the kernel must not execute from
(including user mappings) have the PXN bit set.
