Hi Nicolas,

Yes, it seems that FIX_KMAP_BEGIN and FIX_KMAP_END are not as important for
ARM than that for other architectures (MIPS PowerPC x86), whose FIX_KMAP_BEGIN
is not 0. I will reminder this in my patch. Anyone who need them can get
imformantion there.


Now the new patchs are following. Maybe I sould resend the patch series
with a new tag. If It is time to do that. Can I add this information
"Reviewed-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico at linaro.org>" ?

Thanks,
Liu Hua.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ARM : fixmap : remove FIX_KMAP_BEGIN and FIX_KMAP_END

It seems that these two variables are not used by non
architecture specific code. And on ARM FIX_KMAP_BEGIN
equals zero; FIX_KMAP_END is totally not used by the
kernel.

This patch removes these two variables. The code will
become clear when I introduce a bugfix on fixmap mapping
region.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ARM : change fixmap mapping region to support 32 CPUs

In 32-bit ARM systems, the fixmap mapping region can support
no more than 14 CPUs(total: 896k; one CPU: 64K). And we can
configure NR_CPUS up to 32. So there is a mismatch.

This patch moves fixmapping region downwards to region
0xffc00000-0xffe00000 . Then the fixmap mapping region can
support up to 32 CPUs
