5f0fbf9eca [ARM] fixmap support
This is the minimum fixmap interface expected to be implemented by
architectures supporting highmem.

We have a second level page table already allocated and covering
0xfff00000-0xffffffff because the exception vector page is located
at 0xffff0000, and various cache tricks already use some entries above
0xffff0000.  Therefore the PTEs covering 0xfff00000-0xfffeffff are free
to be used.

However the XScale cache flushing code already uses virtual addresses
between 0xfffe0000 and 0xfffeffff.

So this reserves the 0xfff00000-0xfffdffff range for fixmap stuff.

The Documentation/arm/memory.txt information is updated accordingly,
including the information about the actual top of DMA memory mapping
region which didn't match the code.

37efe6427d [ARM] use asm/sections.h
Update to use the asm/sections.h header rather than declaring these
symbols ourselves.  Change __data_start to _data to conform with the
naming found within asm/sections.h.

4b5f32cee0 [ARM] rationalize memory configuration code some more
Currently there are two instances of struct meminfo: one in
kernel/setup.c marked __initdata, and another in mm/init.c with
permanent storage.  Let's keep only the later to directly populate
the permanent version from arm_add_memory().

Also move common validation tests between the MMU and non-MMU cases
into arm_add_memory() to remove some duplication.  Protection against
overflowing the membank array is also moved in there in order to cover
the kernel cmdline parsing path as well.

40d192b63d [ARM] remove 'prot_pte_ext' from memory type table
This member is now redundant; the memory type is encoded in the Linux
PTE bits.

c172cc92c8 [ARM] mm 6: allow mem_types table to specify extended pte attributes
Add prot_pte_ext to the mem_types table to allow the extended pte
attributes to be passed to set_pte_ext(), thereby permitting us to
specify memory type information for the hardware PTE entries.

b29e9f5e64 [ARM] mm 5: Use mem_types table in ioremap
We really want to be using the memory type table in ioremap, so we
only have to do the CPU type fixups in one place.

ae8f154129 [ARM] Move rest of MMU setup code from mm-armv.c to mmu.c
If we're going to have mmu.c for code which is specific to the MMU
machines, we might as well move the other MMU initialisation
specific code from mm-armv.c into this new file.  This also allows
us to make some functions static.

1b2e2b73b4 [ARM] Cleanup arch/arm/mm a little
Move top_pmd into arch/arm/mm/mm.h - nothing outside arch/arm/mm
references it.

Move the repeated definition of TOP_PTE into mm/mm.h, as well as
a few function prototypes.
