Can you please explain *why* ?

What workload does this actually matter for, and when?

If the system has crashed and we've entered a crash kernel, performance is the
least of our concerns, and what we really want is to be as *robust* and
*reliable* as possible.

This is a huge diffstat for a very niche case, the coe is now much harder to
understand, and I don't think that the changes are well justified. I am very
much not keen on this.

I also thought Will had previously suggested a simpler approach; what was wrong with
that?

We already have cpu_replace_ttbr1(), NAK to a copy-paste of that.

If we *really* need variants, the common parts should be factored out.

Freeing the init_pg_dir has nothing to do with maping the crash kernel, and
that doesn't belong in this function.

Why aren't you using the existing idmap_cpu_replace_ttbr1() ?

Why do you think you need a TLB flush? The existing code relies on
__idmap_cpu_set_reserved_ttbr1() to do that (and the fact that the TLB is not
permitted to cache the base address of the TTBR1 table).

Why is the maintenance *after* unmasking exceptions? That's either unnecessary
or not safe.

Thanks,
Mark.
