Hello,

This is version 6 of the patches originally posted here:

v1: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-June/052157.html
v2: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-June/052559.html
v3: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-June/053252.html
v4: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-August/062305.html
v5: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-November/071909.html

This patch series is slightly smaller than the last post because it now
depends on the idmap work I have posted separately here:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-November/073033.html

As before, this is also dependent on Russell's reset work (available in
his reset branch).

Thanks,

Will
