<title>[ARM] 4102/1: Allow for PHYS_OFFSET on any valid 2MiB address</title>

<id>d4e1c889c1ec547371227558e1da5f2f50c7dd5e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patchs allows the offset to the first page of
physical memory to be on any 2MB boundary
whereas the previous code could only handle psysical
offset to any 16MB boundary (0xNN000000) or any 1MB
boundary below 0x01000000 (e.g. 0x00N00000). The
problem is a consequence of the orr one-byte syntax,
so we fix this and we can place the first bank of
memory at 0x28e00000. I have also included an explicit
check that disallow compilation when PHYS_OFFSET is
not on a 2MiB boundary. head.S would be the proper place
to have this at since this is the first file that
attempts to use PHYS_OFFSET during compile.

Clean up the KERNEL_RAM_ADDR stuff in arch/arm/kernel/head.S to
make it clearer what's referring to what.  In doing so, remove
the usage of __virt_to_phys(), which is not guaranteed to be
something that the assembler can parse.

<title>[ARM] 3809/3: get rid of 4 megabyte kernel image size limit</title>

<id>2552fc27ff79b10b9678d92bcaef21df38bb7bb6</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently have a hardcoded 4 megabyte uncompressed kernel image
size limit, which is easily exceeded by, for example, enabling some of
the various kernel debugging options.

When setting up the initial page tables (which is where this 4M limit
is hardcoded), it's actually relatively easy to find out the true size
of the uncompressed kernel image and create enough page table entries
for things to fit, so this patch makes it so.

In the decompressor, we also need to know the size of the uncompressed
kernel image, to figure out whether there is any chance that uncompressing
the kernel might overwrite the compressed kernel image stored elsewhere
in memory. We don't have that info at this boot stage, though, so we
approximate the size of the uncompressed kernel by taking the compressed
kernel image size and allowing for a maximum 4x expansion.

Processor support files now use r6 in their CPU setup code, so
we can't rely on r6 being preserved.  Use r7 instead.

On some CPUs, bit 4 of section mappings means "update the
cache when written to".  On others, this bit is required to
be one, and others it's required to be zero.  Finally, on
ARMv6 and above, setting it turns on "no execute" and prevents
speculative prefetches.

With all these combinations, no one value fits all CPUs, so we
have to pick a value depending on the CPU type, and the area
we're mapping.
