[PATCH v2 5/7] arm64: move kernel mapping out of linear region
Ard Biesheuvel
ard.biesheuvel at linaro.org
Tue Sep 22 17:37:41 PDT 2015
This moves the primary mapping of the kernel Image out of
the linear region. This is a preparatory step towards allowing
the kernel Image to reside anywhere in physical memory without
affecting the ability to map all of it efficiently.
