In current implementation, we used ARM-specific flag, that is,
VM_ARM_STATIC_MAPPING, for distinguishing ARM specific static mapped area.
The purpose of static mapped area is to re-use static mapped area when
entire physical address range of the ioremap request can be covered
by this area.
This implementation causes needless overhead for some cases.
For example, assume that there is only one static mapped area and
vmlist has 300 areas. Every time we call ioremap, we check 300 areas for
deciding whether it is matched or not. Moreover, even if there is
no static mapped area and vmlist has 300 areas, every time we call
ioremap, we check 300 areas in now.
If we construct a extra list for static mapped area, we can eliminate
above mentioned overhead.
With a extra list, if there is one static mapped area,
we just check only one area and proceed next operation quickly.
In fact, it is not a critical problem, because ioremap is not frequently
used. But reducing overhead is better idea.
Another reason for doing this work is for removing architecture dependency
on vmalloc layer. I think that vmlist and vmlist_lock is internal data
structure for vmalloc layer. Some codes for debugging and stat inevitably
use vmlist and vmlist_lock. But it is preferable that they are used
as least as possible in outside of vmalloc.c
Now, I introduce an ARM-specific infrastructure for static mapped area. In
the following patch, we will use this and resolve above mentioned problem.

This is caused by the 'reserved' entries which we insert (see
19b52abe3c5d7 - ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps)
which get matched for physical address zero.
Resolve this by marking these reserved entries with a different flag.

This patch changes dma-mapping subsystem to use generic vmalloc areas
for all consistent dma allocations. This increases the total size limit
of the consistent allocations and removes platform hacks and a lot of
duplicated code.
Atomic allocations are served from special pool preallocated on boot,
because vmalloc areas cannot be reliably created in atomic context.

This patch adds support for CMA to dma-mapping subsystem for ARM
architecture. By default a global CMA area is used, but specific devices
are allowed to have their private memory areas if required (they can be
created with dma_declare_contiguous() function during board
initialisation).
Contiguous memory areas reserved for DMA are remapped with 2-level page
tables on boot. Once a buffer is requested, a low memory kernel mapping
is updated to to match requested memory access type.
GFP_ATOMIC allocations are performed from special pool which is created
early during boot. This way remapping page attributes is not needed on
allocation time.
CMA has been enabled unconditionally for ARMv6+ systems.

A number of places establish a PTE in our top page table and
immediately flush the TLB. Rather than having this at every callsite,
provide an inline function for this purpose.
This changes some global tlb flushes to be local; each time we setup
one of these mappings, we always do it with preemption disabled which
would prevent us migrating to another CPU.

Now that we have all the static mappings from iotable_init() located
in the vmalloc area, it is trivial to optimize ioremap by reusing those
static mappings when the requested physical area fits in one of them,
and so in a generic way for all platforms.

This patch defines the (pte|pmd)val_t as u32 and changes the page table
types to be based on these. The PMD bits are converted to the
corresponding type using the _AT macro.
The flush_pmd_entry/clean_pmd_entry argument was changed to (void *) to
allow them to be used with both PGD and PMD pointers and avoid code
duplication.

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.

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.
