[PATCHv3] arm64: add support to dump the kernel page tables

Laura Abbott lauraa at codeaurora.org
Tue Nov 25 16:28:39 PST 2014


In a similar manner to arm, it's useful to be able to dump the page
tables to verify permissions and memory types. Add a debugfs file
to check the page tables.

v3: Addresses some style comments. Dropped the section bits since the
arrays are the same right now. More headers are printed for more
address ranges.
