I have a patch to make ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT optional for multi-platform,
which I plan to post at some point in the next weeks. This will let
us enable NOMMU builds and other things in platforms that are
converted to multiplatform (at the obvious expense of losing generality
for that particular build). Most other platforms can work with or without
ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT, but keystone lost that ability.
