Hi all,

This patch series builds on top of Laura's [PATCHv4 00/10] CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL for arm64
to add support for CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL for ARM.

This was tested on a Brahma B15 platform (ARMv7 + HIGHMEM + LPAE).

There are a number of possible follow up/cleanup patches:

- all SMP implements that pass down the address of secondary_startup to the SMP bringup
  operations should use __pa_symbol() instead since they reference in-kernel symbols

Flames, critiques, rotten tomatoes welcome!

Florian Fainelli (3):
  ARM: Define KERNEL_START and KERNEL_END
  ARM: Utilize __pa_symbol in lieu of __pa
  ARM: Add support for CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
