      [ARM] fixmap support · 5f0fbf9e
      Nicolas Pitre 提交于
      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.
