----------------------------------------------------------------
Implement the necessary changes in the ARM assembler boot code to permit
the relative alignment of the physical and the virtual addresses of the
kernel to be as little as 2 MiB, as opposed to the minimum of 16 MiB we
support today.
Series was posted here, and reviewed by Nicolas Pitre and Linus Walleij:
