[PATCH 0/7] ARM: NOMMU: MPU updates

Hi,

I know, we are in a middle of the merge window, but given that DMA fixes for
NOMMU have landed in Linus tree it'd be handy to have this patch set included
too:

"These MPU patches introduce a nice feature that it simplifies the bootloader:
do not need to setup the MPU, for example for coherent DMA region, which is
described in device-tree too." András Szemző

Thanks!
Vladimir
