2011-12-06	ARM: SMP: use idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting	Will Deacon	1	-3/+0
	The ARM SMP booting code allocates a temporary set of page tables containing an identity mapping of the kernel image and provides this to secondary CPUs for initial booting. In reality, we only need to include the __turn_mmu_on function in the identity mapping since the rest of the kernel is executing from virtual addresses after this point. This patch adds __turn_mmu_on to the .idmap.text section, allowing the SMP booting code to use the idmap_pgd directly and not have to populate its own set of page table. As a result of this patch, we can make the identity_mapping_add function static (since it is only used within mm/idmap.c) and also remove the identity_mapping_del function. The identity map population is moved to an early initcall so that it is setup in time for secondary CPU bringup.

2011-12-06	ARM: idmap: populate identity map pgd at init time using .init.text	Will Deacon	1	-0/+17
	When disabling and re-enabling the MMU, it is necessary to take out an identity mapping for the code that manipulates the SCTLR in order to avoid it disappearing from under our feet. This is useful when soft rebooting and returning from CPU suspend. This patch allocates a set of page tables during boot and populates them with an identity mapping for the .idmap.text section. This means that users of the identity map do not need to manage their own pgd and can instead annotate their functions with __idmap or, in the case of assembly code, place them in the correct section.
