Hi,
> With LPAE, When either the start address or end address
> or physical address to be mapped is unaligned,
> alloc_init_section creates page granularity mappings.
> alloc_init_section calls alloc_init_pte which populates
> one pmd entry and sets up the ptes. But if the size is
> greater than what can be mapped by one pmd entry,
> then the rest remains unmapped.
>
> The issue becomes visible when LPAE is enabled, where we have
> the 3 levels with seperate pgd and pmd's.
> When a static mapping for 3MB is requested, only 2MB is mapped
> and the remaining 1MB is unmapped. Fixing this here, by looping
> in to map the entire unaligned address range.
>
> Boot tested on OMAP5 evm with both LPAE enabled/disabled
> and verified that static mappings with unaligned addresses
> are properly mapped.

> Using PMD_XXX instead of SECTION_XXX to avoid
> different loop increments with/without LPAE.
