Updated patch end of the email which addresses your comments. Regarding
above barriers, we dropped the dsb() but I have to retain the isb()
to commit the I-cache/BTB invalidate ops which are issued as part of
flush_cache_louis(). Off-list I was discussing whether to patch cache-v7.S
to add an isb to flush_cache_louis() with Russell but looking at other
usages we though of leaving the isb() in my patch itself. Without the
isb(), we see corruption on next v2p conversion.

Let me know if you have any other concern. I plan to prepare a branch for
RMK to pull in for upcoming merge window.

Regards,
Santosh

Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] ARM: mm: Recreate kernel mappings in
 early_paging_init()

This patch adds a step in the init sequence, in order to recreate
the kernel code/data page table mappings prior to full paging
initialization.  This is necessary on LPAE systems that run out of
a physical address space outside the 4G limit.  On these systems,
this implementation provides a machine descriptor hook that allows
the PHYS_OFFSET to be overridden in a machine specific fashion.
