I'd like to point out that this patch is really needed for 3.10-rc,
*OR* ae8a8b9553 ("ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused
TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead") should be
reverted, as it introduces a regression compared to 3.9.

Without one of those two solutions, 3.10 cannot boot on Armada 370
platforms, which is a clear regression compared to 3.9.

Linus has just released 3.10-rc7 and said it would most likely be the
last rc.

Best regards,

Thomas
