Ard Biesheuvel b05a28f475 ARM: 9012/1: move device tree mapping out of linear region
commit 7a1be318f5795cb66fa0dc86b3ace427fe68057f upstream

On ARM, setting up the linear region is tricky, given the constraints
around placement and alignment of the memblocks, and how the kernel
itself as well as the DT are placed in physical memory.

Let's simplify matters a bit, by moving the device tree mapping to the
top of the address space, right between the end of the vmalloc region
and the start of the the fixmap region, and create a read-only mapping
for it that is independent of the size of the linear region, and how it
is organized.

Since this region was formerly used as a guard region, which will now be
populated fully on LPAE builds by this read-only mapping (which will
still be able to function as a guard region for stray writes), bump the
start of the [underutilized] fixmap region by 512 KB as well, to ensure
that there is always a proper guard region here. Doing so still leaves
ample room for the fixmap space, even with NR_CPUS set to its maximum
value of 32.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
