Aisheng's reply in the other email.

Above two lines were added by mistake. (copied from patch 4)
I'm going to wait for review comments first and resend with changes if any.

we took all memory used by M-core as io memory, including TCM/SRAM/DRAM.

Will it really work for all platforms and was this

Aisheng may confirm, I not test this patchset.

I not test, but it should work per my understanding.
i.MX TCM area has limitation that not use ioremap_wc, DRAM has no such
limitation. Just think this not deserve a fix tag.

Sure, I'll review.
