I'm running into the same issue on a PXA270 system.
UNCACHED_PHYS_0 is used as an immediate operand to a mov instruction, and thus
needs to be encoded as a shifted 8-bit value. One simple solution would be to
hardcode it to 0xfd000000 (0xfe000000 is already used for the IMEMC mapping).
Another solution would be to keep the UNCACHED_PHYS_0 mapping at the end of
the vmalloc area (with a fix for the UL problem due to VMALLOC_END) and modify
pxa2[57]x_finish_suspend and pm_enter_standby_start to use an ldr instruction
instead of a move instruction to load the address.
As a side note, the IMEMC mapping seems unused, maybe we could thus reclaim it
and use 0xfe000000 for UNCACHED_PHYS_0.
Do you plan to submit a v3 of this patch ?
